ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to have made this list with the fabulous Nayeri siblings and the equally fabulous Michael Northrop!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for my next trip to Pawling!
I send my heartfelt thanks to the staff of the Book Cove for choosing me Most Inspiring Author of 2009! It was my first honor as an author and I shall always cherish it. My sister, Holly Humphrys-Bajaj (also my illustrator) thoroughly enjoyed our visit too. We're looking forward to our next signing for our new book Charlie the Horse on March 6, 2010.
ReplyDeleteAll the best,
Deanie Humphrys-Dunne
Dear Deanie, Rosemary, and Sarah:
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I'm glad you had good experiences with us and hope you will come back for your up and coming books.
Best wishes, Teresa
There are dynamic duos, and there may even be dynamic trios, but a dynamic quadrupo?! No one thought it was possible, until that rainy day at Book Cove…
ReplyDeleteThat event was a blast! Thanks again for inviting me. I had a great time talking about classic literature, missing limbs, high school football, and everything else with Daniel, Dina, and the inimitable Sarah. The Book Cove is a sheltered inlet of awesomeness on the shoreline of the world!
Hi Michael,
ReplyDeleteThe most dynamic quadrupo there ever was! Thanks for coming! "Sheltered inlet of awesomeness" is my new tag line for the Cove
