About the Book

Simply a Smile includes a collection of short stories which contain Historical Fiction, Romance, Mystery, and tales of Family. Each was inspired by a piece of art or an object as simple as a shell, a recipe, a button, and a historical marker. These stories are meant for simple reading pleasure and to leave you, the reader, with a smile as the book closes. "The title is very appropriate, as I found myself smiling while reading each story." Nicole McManus, reviewer from Book It at Sasee "Wonderful stories! I can see why Joan wins so many awards. She is an excellent writer - and so creative." JoAnne Matthews, North Carolina Press Secretary and Sun News, Feature Writer (Myrtle Beach, S.C.) "Joan, I love your stories! Each one takes me right there in time!! You write beautifully and authentically." Rose Sinay, Essayist "Joan Leotta's versatile talent shines through in these stories. Poet, novelist, storyteller, historian - Joan uses her gifts to entertain, challenge, and amuse." Dr. Edith A. Edwards, CCC-SLP, Educator and Author
