This book she holds in her hand. This book she held in her head, then shared with the word. This book that, if it were a CD, readers would listen to on repeat. What exactly is a mature reader? Will interested parties have to take a multiple-choice test before being permitted to check out this book? You have to read...

The Picture Book that became Hound Dog True - CROOKED PERFECT
http://lurban.livejournal.com/53121.html
Because small things matter. Powered by LiveJournal.com. The Picture Book that became Hound Dog True. Like my first novel, A Crooked Kind of Perfect. Began as a picture book. It started with the characters: shy Mattie, gregarious Uncle Potluck, a Mama who seemed not to understand her daughter entirely. The moon was there from the beginning, too. But not much else.

Sep 27th, 2008 at 5:51 PM. Remember that commercial with the kids who make Mikey 'try' the cereal first, while they wait to see whether or not he likes it? And the eventual jaw-drop when Mikey proceeds to eat, and eat, and eat? Well, that THUD was the sound of my jaw dropping. Because ohmigoodness. THEY LIKED IT!

School visits! - The Silver Lining
http://pamm.livejournal.com/95695.html
Mar 21st, 2011 at 11:14 AM. I have seventeen school visits this spring and I've done about twelve of them. All have gone so well, I thought I'd share a few of the photos. From a school in College Station! Some librarians should be artists! The next one is from Plano:. This is my Paradise visit! They went all out! My camera broke for most of the visits and I just bought a new one, so this is all I have, but if you're thinking about doing school visits- they are really fun (as you can see! I love this line...
