I'm German, after all.

By the time I finished the book [All Alone in the Universe], Robin Roy was saying, "More pictures!"

I don't feel like it's something I invented myself, rather something I absorbed and continue to do.

A long time ago, I had an idea to make a book for preschoolers who had older siblings who were going to school.

I had a general outline of subjects. The way I start my days is my husband brings me a thermos of coffee up to the bedroom.

I felt ten years old and a thousand years old, but I didn't know how to be my own age. I had never felt that way before, but now I feel like that a lot.

I started thinking about [ what book is going to go next] when I was working on As Easy as Falling Off the Face of the Earth.
