Hi Jamieson,this is Witchwanda in Revere,Ma. You brought me up to date on
that person awhile ago because I never heard of her and was totally confused
by that bit of news!  No, never heard of this women or any of her books! She
seems to be out for fast cash!

>I mean, think about it...has ANYONE heard of her? I certainly haven't, and
I read A LOT of childrens fiction. I even took a course with it in
univeristy, and they had some of the most obscure books for children, and
she was nowhere in existence.

enough case to go forward" (I don't know which article this was from, but I
read it somewhere) is a bunch of poopy. She wanted to wait until JK Rowling
had gotten enough exposure, IMO.

rendition of 'These Boots were made for Walking" and exits stage left
amongst resounding applause.*
