My Insides Still Turn Over When He

Determination And Hard Work Are As Important As Talent.

I Wanted To Write Honest Books For Kids Because I Didn't Have Those When I Was A Kid.

[when I Was A Kid] I Was A Surgeon, Amputating Legs And Arms Of My Paper Dolls. And I Had A Little Board With Little Tacks That I Would Tack Them Down To Do This.

Sometimes I Can't Read My Own Handwriting. That's A Problem!

I Do Believe That People Who Write For Children Are Deeply Connected To Their Own Childhood.
