I just recommended
this book to my sister. But while I'm at it I really ought to recommend
every book by
Patricia Polacco. I love them because she's not afraid for a children's book to really
mean something. And she usually makes me cry, kind of like
HCA. I wish I could give her a hug. Apparently she doesn't own a computer and responds to all her fanmail by hand. Maybe I should write her and send her a literary hug. After all, you should never suppress a generous thought.

I'm adding this book to my library list right now. Thanks!!
I LOVE Patricia Polocco- My personal favorites are The Bee Tree and The Keeping Quilt. LOVE her... somehow, it figures that you do as well.
I got the card... Oh, sweetness! It's so beautiful, and so much more than you should have done. I love it all; look for a letter from me soon. Thank you, dearly.
