Hi Katie,

So nice to “meet” you, and thanks for writing! Isn’t VTS great? I took a quick peek at your site and think you’re right about the “kindred spirit” thing (are you an Anne fan by any chance?). I am excited that you found my book as a mom–we knew it would appeal to teachers and librarians but hoped it would find its way to parents and other caregivers, too. I look forward to hearing from you again, and check out my Other Writing page on this site (https://megandowdlambert.com/other-writing/) for my Horn Book “Books in the Home” essays. I contribute a few pieces a year to this column, but they included other writers’ pieces there, too. Take a look: http://www.hbook.com/tag/books-in-the-home/#_ and think about pitching something someday about your biblio-parenting life.
