In a Presidential Library--Sorta

I sent a copy of Mumsi Meets a Lion to Laura Bush (yes, the President's wife) in December. Of course, she had a lot on her mind at that time: moving, job change, and so on. . . . But I finally heard from her last week. Never mind that it's not gushing or that it's probably signed by a secretary trained to imitate her signature--I'm thrilled to have this memento of my first children's book to be published! I've included images of both the frontispiece signed by me and her congratulatory letter. (See above.)
