βTheyβre not aware of doing this, but kids use books as a kind of rehearsal for real life ... what a book has to say will be different for different readers, because theyβll all bring their own selves to the book, as I have done, and so the book they read is not even the book I wrote."- Lois Lowry

"Mary had many questions.
How would it feel to be a forest creature -
or to have wings and fly?
Is the center of a flower called the heart?
Are rocks somehow alive?"... Erin Frankel

"As part of my MFA program (way back when), I wrote a seminar paper on the sublime: a mix of beauty, grandeur & awe coupled with our own sense of smallness & fear, but fear experienced through enough distance to allow delight, pleasure, and wonder to enter the picture." - @jilanne.bsky.social

It's probably no surprise that I found my way to reading through books about animals. Encountering CHARLOTTE'S WEB was a real turning point for meβbefore that, I thought books were boring.
It's been such an honor to bring animal stories to life for young readers. I'm a lucky author, indeed. β€οΈ
