Patron Reviews:
Samantha, fifth grade: This book is awesome! All of the details in the illustrations really bring it to life.
Paisley, second grade: It was interesting because she was a unusual lady.
Kendra, adult: What is important about a person? And specifically, the person behind a favorite book? We rarely think about the personal lives of such people. This book delightfully illustrates the eccentricity of an author. The picture of all the bunnies in the library is just wonderful, and the picture of the library at night is also very good.
