When my first children's book was published in 2001, I returned to my old elementary school to talk to the students about being an author and an illustrator, and when I was setting up my slide projector in the cafetorium, I looked across the room, and there she was: my old lunch lady.
Kada je objavljena moja  prva knjiga za djecu 2001., vratio sam se u svoju staru osnovnu školu kako bih pričao kako je biti autor i ilustrator, i kada sam postavljao svoj projektor, u kantini, pogledao sam preko sobe, i ona je tamo bila: moja stara teta iz kantine.
