[stylist] query

[Judith Bron]

Hi Chris, I just did a word count and got 528.  Believe me, it is one page. 
I wrote the reason for writing the book because hundreds of books about 
observant Jewish teens have been written for a niche audience.  They are 
available in specialty stores to a limitted consumer base.  This book will 
solve that problem.
