    Dear Anastasia! Thank you so much for reviewing our book! Not all reviewers pick up on the poetry of the book! We really appreciate your support.

    I am doing a lot of events in schools, at the Smithsonian, etc. and I hope to have the chance to come out to Texas one day and meet you.

    I love the work that you are doing with children and please let me know if I can help in any way. Look for OOOH! Picasso early in 2009!
