New Harper Lee book for teens

Harper Lee's famous novel To Kill A Mockingbird is read by thousands across America. Yet little is known about the author herself. Check out Charles J. Shields' detailed and absorbing 2008 book I Am Scout: The Biography of Harper Lee (an adapted version for young adults of his New York Times Bestseller Mockingbird: A Portrait of Harper Lee) with information from archives and interviews with Lee and those who knew her. You can also read I Am Scout discussion guides at http://www.charlesjshields.com/PDF/I_Am_Scout_Guide.pdf.
