Best Books Ever !!
- I am an assistant in the library at Carencro Heights Elem. and just wanted to let you know that the kids here love the Henry and Mudge series and I especially love your autobiography "Best Wishes". The pictures are awesome -- made me feel as though I was sitting down visiting with you! Keep the books coming. Just a big kid at heart. :)

I love Cynthia Rylant books!
- I teach third grade, so some of "my kids" are struggling readers. Cynthia Rylant books always fit the bill for books with which those students can be successful. Our school library has purple tape below books for struggling readers (early chapter books) so it is very easy to identify them.
