Dear Mr. Pinkwater,

I just want to tell you that my children (ages 2, 5, and 10) absolutely, without a doubt, love your books! From a recommendation of a friend, I went to the library and just randomly grabbed two of your books–Aunt Lulu and Guys from Outer Space. We read them every night. My 5 year can actually recite the names of all of Aunt Lulu’s dogs (in order) every time their names pop up in the story.

I want to try my hand at writing children’s books (I used to draw comics as a young girl). And, you are very inspirational. Thank you for sharing yourself with the world.

Light and Laughter,

Shereese

Thank you! I hope you and the kids will read some of the 90+ others! And...I am writing more!
