New Orleans, LA (1888PressRelease) March 07, 2011 - New Orleans author, Paulette Jones, has approved her final proof and now awaits the production of her first children's book Girls' Day Out, which was inspired by the relationship she has with her grand nieces who are curious, precocious ten year olds. The book follows them through a week of exploration and discovery and delivers them an adventure they'll remember for years to come. Girls' Day Out will be available at yourtimepublishing.com, Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble.com and other online book stores.

"I was originally motivated to write this novel because of my nieces. After returning home, after Hurricane Katrina, I found myself surrounded by grand nieces and also with time on my hand. I was inspired by their curiosity and desire to learn. When they realized I was an author they asked me if I could write a book for them. I decided to use our girls' day out as the back drop. They have helped me see the beauty in things I call the ordinary and have taken for granted, said Paulette Jones.

Three girls, class mates, best friends, "A" students and cousins, are ready for summer to begin. It had been a long, hard school year but still they rose to the challenge and each received the most outstanding fourth grader award. They usually go to their respective grandmother's house at the end of the school year but this year their aunties decide to reward them for their hard work and award winning school performance. They called it Girls' Day Out. A phone call was made to the parents of each girl advising them of the plans they had made. The aunties didn't give much detail because they knew the girls' curiosity would be relentless and they would bug everyone until they got their way. They wanted to know, they needed to know what and where this Girls' Day Out would take them. The suspense is overwhelming so they use all of the resources that they have to find out where they will be going. They ask their parents if they know anything, they go to the library and look in books, magazines and on maps; they use the computer and look for places near and far. The lessons they learned this week are priceless.

Paulette Jones, born and nurtured in the city of New Orleans, during the turbulent 1960's attended John McDonogh High School and UNO for a semester finally receiving her AA from Palomar College in San Marcos, California. She joined the Air Force and traveled the United States. It wasn't until she was an adult that she realized she had a gift of storytelling. After reading several novels written by African American authors, she had a desire to see if she could put her stories on paper. At the completion of her quest she had written her first novel HerStory: Revelations. She was first recognized when several of her plays were performed at the Black Repertory Theatre in Berkeley, California.
