"On The Rooftop" by Margaret Wilkerson Sexton ($15)
- What it's about: "On the Rooftop" follows a talented trio of musical sisters based in San Francisco. When they receive an offer from a talent manager, stardom seems near, but at the same time, the sisters are coming of age and wondering if their band is what they want to pursue after all.
- What Witherspoon says: "Set in the 1950's in San Francisco, this book centers around an incredibly talented group of singing sisters and their fierce mom, Vivian, who has big dreams of them becoming famous. An utterly original and brilliant story about learning how to mother children who have very different dreams and how to encourage them to reach for the stars."
