A few minutes ago Willa Correnti called to tell me that my book arrived and that she loves it! "I love what it looks like, what it feels like, and how it reads," she said. "I'd like to put it in the window."
So now I'm packing up half a dozen copies to send to New Voices! I think Magellan and Paracelsus will enjoy being in New York, especially tucked away in a little book shop the East Village.
Hurray!

I am so thrilled you reviewed this book, I read it years ago, for my own enjoyment, and soaked up the gorgeous illustrations for hours. It has inspired me to pick up the others in Niki Daly’s series!
