If You Don't See The

I Feel Sometimes That In Children's Books There Are More And More Grim Problems, But I Don't Know That I Want To Burden Third- And Fourth-graders With Them.

With Twins, Reading Aloud To Them Was The Only Chance I Could Get To Sit Down. I Read Them Picture Books Until They Were Reading On Their Own.

I Grew Up Before There Were Strict Leash Laws.

What Interests Me Is What Children Go Through While Growing Up.

As A Child, I Disliked Books In Which Children Learned To Be 'better' Children.
