Thornton, Matthew. Big YA Deals. Ashley Rhodes-Courter's Three Little Words.
Agent Joelle Delbourgo just wrapped up an auction for 20-year-old Ashley Rhodes-Courter's memoir Three Little Words; Simon & Schuster's Elizabeth Law won North American rights.
It took 44 caseworkers, 23 lawyers, 19 foster parents as well as the determination of the author to get herself out of the foster care system and adopted into a stable home at age 12.
Now a college senior, Rhodes-Courter is a national crusader for the rights of foster children. S&S will publish in spring 2007 and plans to cross-sell the book into the adult market.
