Thunder Cake has always been one of my favorite picture books. Thank You, Mr. Falker is another one I vividly remember reading as a child. It's crazy to see the big difference in publishing today. At least there is a way people can self publish. Great interview (:Adriana @ BooksOnHerMindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564998651703349031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3559682240693489971.post-49083942382228648272013-05-19T22:35:47.627-04:002013-05-19T22:35:47.627-04:00Leslie- All of her books make me teary.

I can only imagine the changes she's seen the industry go through...and to think, still using a typewriter to "pen" her craft.
