I Think Of Mercy Watson Like A

I Am Really An Introvert, And I Need That Time Alone For A Variety Of Reasons.

To Me The Book Is Like Having A Kid. I Have To Let It Go Out In The World, And Great Things Will Happen. Maybe They Won't, But It Has To Keep On Moving.

Mercy Watson Was A Character That Had Been In My Head For A Long Time.

What Was It Like...to Have Someone Who Knew You Would Always Return And Who Welcomed You With Open Arms?

I'm Grateful For Every Teacher Or Librarian Who Reads A Book And Says, "this Is Exactly The Book That So-and-so Needs To Read; I'll Get It In His Hands." I'm Amazed At The Network Of Adults Who Make Sure That Kids Get Books.
