Thanks for writing such great books! Despereaux and Edward Tulane are favorites of mine and are wonderful read-aloud books. What is next for you? Anything brewing?

Hope
Hope asked Kate DiCamillo:

Kate, your earlier books had a back story of sadness and loss for the main character. With Flora and Ulysses, the girl is stalwart and zany. Do these qualities reflect you and a progression in your own life?

Kelly
Kelly asked Kate DiCamillo:

I work as an Early Literacy Specialist at a public library, and I am extremely excited about your platform as the National Ambassador for Young People's Literature and the idea that "Stories Connect Us." Do you have any advice for parents, teachers, and librarians eager to help children develop a life-long love of reading?

Elaine Aaron
Elaine Aaron asked Kate DiCamillo:

Do you have advice for hooking young students, especially those who struggle academically on reading? As a teacher-librarian I'm aware of the necessity of exposing them to quality literature and sharing my passion for reading (and have plenty of your wonderful books to share)! As National Ambassador of Young People's Literature, do you have other recommendations?
