I play with my grandchildren. I tend to my garden, which I love. Of course, I love to read, and family is really what it's all about.

My books have three W's on them, which are "words," "wisdom," and "wonder." Words inevitably lead to wisdom, and wisdom inevitably leads to wonder and awe at this phenomenal world around us.

I do think, where would kids be if it weren't for you and for the good pediatricians, and for the good parents? I passionately believe in sitting a child on your lap and tracing the lines of the book with your finger, and they can read before they know they can, if you bother enough. I did it with my kids, and they're doing it with their kids now.

And I think as long as a song has beautiful lyrics, I'm so happy.

I would be a fool to deny my own abilities.

Words are what make the song. I get a personal vision about what the lyrics are about.
