I’m grateful for your support! </span><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span style="color: #212121;">I know Jake very well. His story is based on my own experiences with anorexia nervosa, depression, anxiety, and obsessive compulsive disorder. You could say that I’ve known Jake for my entire life.
</span></span><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span><span style="color: #212121;">
</span><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What do you think is his most admirable quality?</span></span><span style="color: #990000;">

He has a compassionate heart. Also, he loves musical theatre and poetry and reading.
</span><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;">
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What do you think Jake can offer to other children that are experiencing similar situations to what he went through?</span></span></p></span><span id="docs-internal-guid-c7aa7e4f-7fff-7120-0d73-7550a77ccdde"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space-collapse: preserve;">John Schu: </span><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space-collapse: preserve;">I hope Jake’s story provides hope for all readers. I hope his story shows readers experiencing similar situations that there is a way to the other side of anorexia. That we can talk back to the negative voice in our heads. That life can be easier, better, and more fun. That we deserve to take up space.
</span><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span><span>

When my grandma dies. His grandma was his best friend. She meant the world to him.
</span></span><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span><span>
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Who do you think was his biggest supporter and why?</span></span><span style="color: #990000;">

He resists treatment for a long time. For a lot of the book, he dislikes everyone at Whispering Pines, the residential treatment center where he spends almost a year. He eventually realizes they care about him. They support him.

She arrived in my mind and on the page as a smart, feisty, and driven eleven-year-old girl, determined to win a county reading contest against all odds and in opposition to her mother. So, as you see, Cora appeared with her key traits already in place. It was the plot that changed around her when I decided to transform it into a middle grade novel.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What do you think is her most admirable quality?</span><br />As the novel opens, it is Cora’s intense dedication of purpose that the reader encounters. I admire her willingness to commit herself to the cause of bringing electricity to her mountains when the opportunity arises. However, simultaneously, the reader has an underlying feeling of dread because we know in those very first two chapters that her mother will oppose her pursuit.<br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Of course, by the end of the story, Cora’s capacity to remain true to her own passions while also allowing them to be shaped and refined by listening to new facts and the opinions of others grows. She is maturing.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Is there anything you wish she would have changed or done differently in her story?<br /></span>Well, of course, I wish that Cora had been able to listen, and really HEAR, her mother’s concerns at the start of the story (and also that her mother had been able to express them). But had that been the case, this story would not have been as rich as it is. A main character in a novel must face harsh odds and overcome them, both through personal effort (i.e., physical strength, intellectual strength, emotional strength) and through growth and change. Imagine if Cora had been able to understand and acknowledge the point of view of her mother and other opponents of electricity right as the story opens? It would have stolen much of the tension from the story, making it emotionally flat, wouldn’t it?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What do you think Cora Mae can offer to other children that are experiencing similar situations to what she went through?</span><br />Cora models three important lessons. First, of course, is the importance of holding fast to one’s dreams, even in the face of opposition. Second, is to listen to your guides, mentors, and supporters with an openness to their ideas to help you shape your own. Third, is to learn to listen without defensiveness to your opposition. It is often true that those who disagree with us have important things to say that can help us to revise our plans and our goals, or at least to find better ways to accomplish them. In listening to others who oppose our ideas with an open heart and mind, we are also able to maintain relationships that might otherwise be damaged or even lost, as Cora and her mother came close to losing each other.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">How did you research Cora Mae and the circumstances she found herself in?</span><br />I did a great deal of simultaneous research using a variety of sources. Two children’s books were pivotal in awakening my curiosity. My earliest inspiration came when I encountered the work of Mary Breckinridge and her Frontier Nursing Service in Eastern Kentucky in Rosemary Wells’ middle grade book <i style="color: black;">Mary on Horseback</i>. Then I encountered the Pack Horse Library Project in the middle grade nonfiction book, <i style="color: black;">Down Cut Shin Creek: The Pack Horse Librarians of Kentucky </i>by Kathi Appelt and Cannella Schmitzer. This project operated in the same mountainous region in the very same time period and my librarian heart sang! I had all the makings of a great story.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.5in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">But of course, I immediately went far beyond them. Most notably, I read Mary Breckinridge’s memoir, <i>Wide Neighborhoods</i>, and an important adult book about the electrification of rural Kentucky, <i>Let There Be Light: The Story of Rural Electrification in Kentucky</i> by David Dick.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.5in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">As a librarian, researching further was one of the deep pleasures of the project for me. I read accounts from locals about their childhoods in the 1930’s in those mountains as well as published historical studies dating back to the period, academic articles, and many, many books, including both fiction and nonfiction books about the region. I also watched so many videos, both original videos from the period, professional documentaries, and videotaped interviews of Eastern Kentuckians. Any question, small or large, that arose as I wrote and revised sent me off in search of the one additional perfect resource that would satisfy my curiosity and the story’s demands.

Like Cora, I am stubborn in my commitment to a personal goal. For instance, becoming a published children’s author. Once I turned it from a dream into a goal in 1995, I refused to let anything get in my way, especially the long and often discouraging task of submitting my work to publishers and facing stacks of rejections. But the hard work and commitment paid off in the form of 32 published books—31 picture books and now my first novel—<i style="color: black;">Light Comes to Shadow Mountain</i>! I am also a true and loyal friend, as Cora and Ceilly are to each other. In fact, friendship is crucial to me. I consider it an essential use of my time each day to stay in touch with my friends near and far.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What was the hardest scene to write about her?</span><br />The hardest scene to write was the enormous fight in Chapter 28 in which Mommy shuts Cora’s dreams completely down. Mommy seems to leave no alternative path for Cora to follow, and it was so heartbreaking to live through this scene with her. I experienced her desperation as she tried to explain to Mommy and her fear as Mommy became physical, slamming her fist on the open door and shouting at Cora, “You listen to me, girl. I’ve not finished and you need to hear what I’m about to say. I <i style="color: black;">know </i>I can’t control what our neighbors decide. If enough folks sign up for electricity, there’s not a thing I can do. But <i style="color: black;">I </i>don’t want it. I have had my fill of change. And I won’t have <i style="color: black;">you </i>supporting it by taking hardworking Kentucky people’s money.” I had to force myself to experience both that desperation and fear that Cora was feeling in order for the scene to be authentic and it was harrowing.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br /> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Who do you think was her biggest supporter and why?</span><br />This is such an important question, and it ties closely into my answer to your next question too! Cora Mae has three essential supports in her life. The first and most important, of course, is her father, Pap. Even when the struggle between Mommy and Cora grows so intense that taking sides risks Pap’s marriage to Mommy, he finds ways to support both Cora AND Mommy. And Cora understands, in every chapter of the book, that Pap loves her unconditionally. Miss Bentley is the second adult support in Cora’s life, dedicated as she is to Cora’s intellectual growth and achievement and a constant reinforcer of Cora’s pursuits and ambitions. Ceilly is Cora’s age-mate supporter, without whom Cora would be lost. Ceilly’s depth of understanding of her best friend, her loyalty, and her constant efforts to buoy Cora’s spirits make her essential in Cora’s life.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Why do you think some young people can show such resilience, strength, and courage during difficult life situations; sometimes even more than the adults in their lives?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">As a part of my in-service work as an elementary school librarian, I had training in resilience theory, which says that much more than being an inborn personality trait, resilience comes from outside the child. The reason that some kids are able to overcome amazing odds against them in difficult life circumstances is often because of the external support they have. Lucky kids who experience resilience, like Cora Mae, have strong supports in place.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); line-height: 13.5pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What do you think Cora Mae is doing at the present time?</span><br />Cora was born in 1926, so she will celebrate her 98<sup style="color: black;">th</sup> birthday this year, in 2024. I imagine that she is still quite intellectually capable (and I know this is possible because I have a cousin who is 92 and a friend who is 94 and both can give you a run for your money in any conversation) though she is not nearly so physically hardy as she was traversing those mountain paths at eleven-years-old. What she has loved the most in the past century is watching the development of communication technology from television to e-books, the Internet, smart phones, and video chat. She worries about how Social Media is affecting children and teens and often thinks about how like her mother’s concerns that electricity coming would negatively impact the children of the mountains and their way of life this is. Cora is also concerned about the fast-burgeoning field of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and knows for certain that while she can see some very useful aspects of AI, her mother would have been dead set against it!</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p></span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: 18px;"><div style="line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="color: #333333; margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><u><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">SEASON #ONE (2016-2017)</span></u></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: #7d4417; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/06/an-inside-look-1-interview-with-elly.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #1 with Elly Swartz (Author of Finding Perfect)</a></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/06/an-inside-look-2-interview-with-jeff.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;"><span style="color: blue;">Interview #2 with Jeff Zentner (Author of The Serpent King)</span></a></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/06/an-inside-look-3-interview-with-nora.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #3 with Nora Raleigh Baskin (Author of Nine, Ten, A September 11 Story)</a></span></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/07/an-inside-look-4-interview-with-cammie.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #4 with Cammie McGovern (Author of Just My Luck)</a></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/07/an-inside-look-5-interview-with-kate.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #5 with Kate Messner (Author of The Seventh Wish)</a></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/07/an-inside-look-6-paul-griffin.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #6 with Paul Griffin (Author of When Friendship Followed Me Home)</a></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: inherit;"><br /><span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;"><span style="color: blue;">Interview #7 with K.A.

I usually see my characters as fragments or pieces of myself.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><br />What do you think is his most admirable quality?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; font-family: inherit;">I appreciate his ability to explore nuances. Noah feels the world deeply and reflects often.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Is there anything you wish they would have changed or done differently in their story?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; font-family: inherit;">Nope! I'm really happy with how the story unfurls. I do think sometimes about a sequel though because I miss the characters and I'd love to explore being in their shoes again.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What do you think Noah can offer to other children that are experiencing similar situations to what they went through?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; font-family: inherit;">I think he can offer a story of how multiple emotions and experiences can be true at once. Noah is both grieving the loss of his best friend and building new beautiful moments with friends he's making through the story. It can be hard to feel joy after loss but Noah shows we often feel these emotions side by side. I think Noah can also teach us to explore the unknown and that believing in otherworldly things like monsters and cryptids can teach us a lot about ourselves and the world around us.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">How did you research Noah and the circumstances they found themselves in?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; font-family: inherit;">I didn't do much hard research for the book because it draws really heavily on my lived experience as an autistic trans person. I also lived in the town where the story is set. The most research I did was actually around Mothman stories because I wanted to get the legend right. I also have worked most of my adult like with the LGBTQIA2+ community and our youth and I consider youth some of my best teachers.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Do you and Noah share any similarities?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; font-family: inherit;">A whole lot! I'm also a very emotional and poetic person. Growing up, I often felt isolated and alone because of being queer and neurodivergent. I also am very interested in cryptids, ghost stories, and anything spooky.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><br />What was the hardest scene to write about them?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; font-family: inherit;">I struggled to write scenes where people don't understand Noah. School was a really difficult place for me as a young person and so I felt like I relived some of those hard memories of my own to explore Noah's relationship with school.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><br />Who do you think was Noah’s biggest supporter and why?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; font-family: inherit;">Probably Hanna. She's sweet and kind and encourages Noah to be who he is. Though, I wanted to say Mothman.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Why do you think some young people can show such resilience, strength, and courage during difficult life situations; sometimes even more than the adults in their lives?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; font-family: inherit;">I think young folks are often our most creative. I think it comes from having less time to be steeped in the systems of our world that work to quash our imaginations.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><br />What do you think Noah is doing at the present time?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; font-family: inherit;">He's definitely hanging out with his friends and maybe going on an adventure to look for the Squonk (that's a cryptid from the Pennsylvania forests). </span></p><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"><div style="color: #212121;"><span face="sans-serif" style="color: black;"><br /></span></div></div></span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="background-color: white;

Some of her escapades are even stolen directly from the stories my grandmother told me about her childhood. While my grandmother wasn’t prickly like Dory, they share the same sense of adventure, the same wry humor, and the same tenacious commitment to family. So I suppose I got to know Dory by picturing my grandma as a child and imagining a historical world around her.</span><span style="color: #222222; line-height: 1.2;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /><br />What do you think is her most admirable quality?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;">I admire Dory’s courage. She’s not afraid to do difficult things, whether it’s getting into a creaky old dumbwaiter nobody else has been brave enough to get into in 30 years, or being the first couple on the dance floor at the 6<sup>th</sup><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>grade dance, or figuring out how to get along without her beloved Pop. That bravery is a quality I wish I had more of myself.</span><span style="color: #222222; line-height: 1.2;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Is there anything you wish she would have changed or done differently in her story?</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">For her own sake – and Fish’s – I wish she’d come around earlier on her brother. I wish she’d realized that he was doing his very best (which, in my opinion, was actually really good) under impossible circumstances. But I suppose Dory’s recognition of her brother’s heroism is a major part of her journey, so I’m not sure it could have happened any earlier than it did. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What do you think Dory can offer to other children that are experiencing similar situations to what she went through?</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;">As the title suggests,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><i>Nothing Else But Miracles</i><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>is about the little miracles that surround us, whether it’s a kind word from a friend, a free pass to Coney Island, or a neighbor who volunteers to do something really big for us, without even asking. I hope that, through Dory’s story, young readers will spot some tiny miracles in their own worlds… the gifts of kindness and support that a community (teachers, neighbors, friends, family, and strangers) can provide.</span><span style="color: #222222; line-height: 1.2;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">How did you research Dory and the circumstances she found herself in?</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The seed for the book really was the actual ‘secret old hotel’ where the book takes place. I read about it in an old New Yorker article and was thrilled to discover that it still exists, lovingly administered by the dear and wonderful folks at New York’s South Street Seaport Museum. I adore stories about secret spaces that only kids know about, so the book took off from there. I also love the research side of historical fiction, so spending time in 1940s New York City – the New York of my grandmother and my father – was an absolute joy. I read a lot of non-fiction about New York in wartime, and also listened to recorded oral histories from the time. But the biggest gift, by far, in getting to know Dory’s world, was getting to visit the actual old hotel. That was a dream come true.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Do you and Dory share any similarities? </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;">For the most part, Dory and I are very, very different. She’s rather prickly; I hope I’m not prickly that way. She doesn’t much like hugs and feelings and other ‘squishy’ things; I tend to wear my heart on my sleeve, and I’m a hugger. But I think the thing Dory and I do share quite strongly is a deep love and loyalty to family. Like Dory, I am also a big fan of crullers.</span><span style="color: #222222; line-height: 1.2;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /><br />What was the hardest scene to write about her?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Honestly, the toughest scene for me to write wasn’t so much about Dory. It was the first-chapter flashback, where we get a glimpse of Pop’s decision to go off and fight in the war. I’m hugely grateful to my editor, Margaret Ferguson, for pushing me to work on that scene. I think it’s an important one, because we need to understand how a man could have been a good father and still have made the choice to leave his children. So explaining the ways that Pop felt pressured by the traditional idea of ‘duty’ as a man in 1940 felt critical, as did the idea that by going, himself, he was saving his son from doing so.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /><br />Who do you think was her biggest supporter and why?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Throughout the book, I think Fish is Dory’s biggest supporter (though a close second would go to Vincent Morello). Fish is essentially a kid who has been forced into the role of father, and his ‘kid’ is not exactly making it easy for him. Not only does she disobey him, she also reminds him all the time that she blames him for their father not being there. The fact that Fish manages to understand that about his sister, and to love her and keep on trying his best, makes him the most important support in her life. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #222222;"><br /><br /></span><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Why do you think some young people can show such resilience, strength, and courage during difficult life situations; sometimes even more than the adults in their lives? </span><span style="color: #212121; font-size: medium;"> </span></span><span style="color: #212121; font-family: inherit;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Oh gosh… as a former child psychologist, I’ve spent my whole life being awestruck by children’s extraordinary resilience. It’s one of the things I love about writing for children – getting to live in those amazing heads for a while. I think most kids are idealists by nature. They see the good in the world, even when it’s really hard to see. And when they don’t see that good, they want to create it. In that sense, I think children have a stronger core than adults do. That spirit of resilience is also something I’ve loved about writing two novels set during World War II, an era when I think people were especially renowned for their resilience and strength. I find it endlessly inspiring.<br /></span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What do you think Dory is doing at the present time? </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">What a fun question. And one I’d love to explore in a future book… I’d love to figure out what happened to Dory and her family after 1944! In real time, Dory would currently be 92 years old. I like to think she was a trailblazer who bucked every unreasonable limitation put on women of her era, and that she’s currently snuggled up with her great grandkids, introducing them to 1940s horror films.</span></span></p><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"><div style="color: #212121;"><span face="sans-serif" style="color: black;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span face="sans-serif" style="color: black;"><br /></span></div></div></span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: 18px;"><div style="line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="color: #333333; margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><u><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">SEASON #ONE (2016-2017)</span></u></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: #7d4417; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/06/an-inside-look-1-interview-with-elly.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #1 with Elly Swartz (Author of Finding Perfect)</a></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/06/an-inside-look-2-interview-with-jeff.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;"><span style="color: blue;">Interview #2 with Jeff Zentner (Author of The Serpent King)</span></a></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/06/an-inside-look-3-interview-with-nora.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #3 with Nora Raleigh Baskin (Author of Nine, Ten, A September 11 Story)</a></span></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/07/an-inside-look-4-interview-with-cammie.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #4 with Cammie McGovern (Author of Just My Luck)</a></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/07/an-inside-look-5-interview-with-kate.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #5 with Kate Messner (Author of The Seventh Wish)</a></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/07/an-inside-look-6-paul-griffin.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #6 with Paul Griffin (Author of When Friendship Followed Me Home)</a></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: inherit;"><br /><span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;"><span style="color: blue;">Interview #7 with K.A.

I thought this could be the one we started with for the new book club. I knew I would never read it on my own because I'm not a fan of Westerns and the story is quite long at almost 900 pages.

Since I have a flexible job and am relatively outdoorsy, I thought: what the heck? Maybe I could take him hiking myself? He’s a fun kid and usually up for just about anything, so I figured a trail adventure would be great quality time with him and good reading time, to boot. What started as a simple plan morphed into a 100-mile adventure - and Jo's character ended up being developed using a fun combo of Henry and myself!<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #990000;">What do you think is her most admirable quality?</span><br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;">Her positive attitude and humor, even in the face of adversity!<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Is there anything you wish she would have changed or done differently in her story?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;">No, if I had, I would have written it that way. Hahaha<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What do you think Jo can offer to other children that are experiencing similar situations to what she went through?<br /></span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;">I think Jo's journey is all about resilience, and learning that we're all capable of surviving much more than we think ourselves capable of. I hope that what she survives during this adventure (and also in the years leading up to their hike) will bring hope to other readers who are going through difficult family situations or other types of hard times in their lives.<br /></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"><br /><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /><span style="color: #990000;">How did you research Jo and the circumstances she found herself in?<br /></span></span></span><span face="sans-serif" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: black; font-family: inherit;">Oh boy, this is a big question - I'd recommend people read the back matter in the book, or take a peek at my website for a LOT of info on the research hike that inspired the details of this story:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><a class="enhancr_card_6129349123" href="https://www.erinsoderberg.com/just-keep-walking.html" rel="nofollow" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;" target="_blank" title="https://www.erinsoderberg.com/just-keep-walking.html">Just Keep Walking - Erin Soderberg Downing Books for Kids</a></p><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div class="ydpbe4eedc7yahoo-link-enhancr-card ydpbe4eedc7yahoo-link-enhancr-not-allow-cover ydpbe4eedc7ymail-preserve-class ydpbe4eedc7ymail-preserve-style" data-size="MEDIUM" data-type="YENHANCER" data-url="https://www.erinsoderberg.com/just-keep-walking.html" id="ydpbe4eedc7enhancr_card_6129349123" style="color: #212121; max-width: 400px;"><a class="ydpbe4eedc7yahoo-enhancr-cardlink" href="https://www.erinsoderberg.com/just-keep-walking.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: black; text-decoration-color: currentcolor; text-decoration-line: none; text-decoration-style: solid;" target="_blank" title="https://www.erinsoderberg.com/just-keep-walking.html"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="ydpbe4eedc7card-wrapper ydpbe4eedc7yahoo-ignore-table" style="max-width: 400px;"><tbody><tr><td width="400"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="ydpbe4eedc7card ydpbe4eedc7yahoo-ignore-table" style="border-color: rgb(224, 228, 233); border-radius: 2px; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; max-width: 400px; width: 400px;"><tbody><tr><td><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="ydpbe4eedc7card-info ydpbe4eedc7yahoo-ignore-table" style="background-attachment: scroll; background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border-radius: 0px 0px 2px 2px; border-top-color: rgb(224, 228, 233); border-top-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(224, 228, 233); max-width: 400px; width: 398px; z-index: 2;"><tbody><tr><td style="border-radius: 0px 0px 0px 2px; padding: 16px 0px 16px 12px; vertical-align: top;"></td><td style="border-radius: 0px 0px 2px; padding: 12px 24px 16px 12px; vertical-align: middle; width: 350px;"><h2 class="ydpbe4eedc7card-title" style="color: #1d2228; line-height: 19px; margin: 0px 0px 6px; max-width: 314px;">Just Keep Walking - Erin Soderberg Downing Books for Kids</h2><p class="ydpbe4eedc7card-description" style="color: #979ea8; line-height: 16px; margin: 0px;"></p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></a></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><p class="ydp6bf8c4a5yiv5670281054MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span face="sans-serif" style="color: #990000; font-size: medium; line-height: 1.2;">Do you and Jo share any similarities?<br /></span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">We do - we both have a lot of fears, particularly the fear of being alone. But we're also both pretty tough, and look to humor to help make light of hard situations. Because nothing makes a hard time even harder than a bad attitude!<br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">What was the hardest scene to write about her?<br /></span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">When her mom suffers an injury and Jo needs to continue on her hike alone, that first night in her tent by herself was really hard for me to write - I, too, have spent some time camping alone, and I know how scary that first night by yourself in a tent can be!<br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Who do you think was her biggest supporter and why?<br /></span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">One big thing I love about this book is the community Jo surrounds herself with - sometimes, you have to lean on others to get through hard situations. In this story - just like in all my own real life distance hike adventures - there is a whole trail family waiting to support you when you need it. In this story, it's mostly her mom, her trail "family" of Maddie and Julia and Murphy, and also all the random strangers she connects with along the way who all teach her a little something about herself.</span></p><div style="color: #212121;"><span face="sans-serif" style="color: black;"><br /></span></div></div></span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: 18px;"><div style="line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="color: #333333; margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><u><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">SEASON #ONE (2016-2017)</span></u></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: #7d4417; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/06/an-inside-look-1-interview-with-elly.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #1 with Elly Swartz (Author of Finding Perfect)</a></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/06/an-inside-look-2-interview-with-jeff.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;"><span style="color: blue;">Interview #2 with Jeff Zentner (Author of The Serpent King)</span></a></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/06/an-inside-look-3-interview-with-nora.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #3 with Nora Raleigh Baskin (Author of Nine, Ten, A September 11 Story)</a></span></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/07/an-inside-look-4-interview-with-cammie.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #4 with Cammie McGovern (Author of Just My Luck)</a></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/07/an-inside-look-5-interview-with-kate.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #5 with Kate Messner (Author of The Seventh Wish)</a></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://readwonder.blogspot.com/2016/07/an-inside-look-6-paul-griffin.html" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;">Interview #6 with Paul Griffin (Author of When Friendship Followed Me Home)</a></div></div></div></div></div><div style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: inherit;"><br /><span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/" style="color: #7d4417; text-decoration-line: none;"><span style="color: blue;">Interview #7 with K.A.

As Not Quite a Ghost begins, she’s moving into a new house where she gets stuck with the creepy attic bedroom, and has just started sixth grade—where her best friends are eager to expand their friend group. It’s difficult for her; she doesn’t love change, but she also very much wants everyone around her to be happy so she does her best to roll with it.</span><span class="Apple-converted-space" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-family: inherit;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">But everything gets derailed when she comes down with a disabling postviral illness that no one can diagnose, and she has to spend more and more time in that attic bedroom—and is that something moving in the wallpaper?</span><span class="Apple-converted-space" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">Violet’s experiences with illness are much like my own. In college, I was diagnosed with what is known as chronic fatigue syndrome, after having cycles of debilitating fatigue, dizziness, and brain fog. Invisible chronic illness has been so much a part of my life that I always felt like I should write about it, but it wasn’t until I started reading more middle grade horror that I found a way in. </span><span class="Apple-converted-space" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="line-height: 1.2;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: black; font-size: medium;"><b><br /></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">What do you think Violet can offer to other children that are experiencing similar situations to what she went through?</span><br /></b></span></span><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">Postviral syndromes are considered invisible illnesses—while the term is used for any illness or disorder that isn’t necessarily apparent, it’s particularly apt for illnesses that seem invisible to both the medical world and to society. I hope Violet might help kids who have invisible chronic illness like ME/CFS or Long COVID to find ways to communicate what they’re experiencing, and, even more, to know that they’re not alone. </span><span class="Apple-converted-space" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="line-height: 1.2;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;"> </span><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="line-height: 1.2;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><b>What was the hardest scene to write about her?</b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: black;">Violet and her mom go into her pediatrician’s office and the emergency room expecting to get help; after all, they believe, it’s how medicine is supposed to work. But both doctors dismiss her entirely, and it’s so demoralizing for her. It’s bad enough to be so sick, but when doctors don’t believe you that you’re sick, it robs you of dignity and hope. Unfortunately, not being taken seriously is part of having ME/ CFS, and essential to making the haunting metaphor work—but it wasn’t fun to put her through that! The ghost was hard enough.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;"> </span><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: black;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: black; line-height: 1.2;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><b>Who do you think was her biggest supporter and why?</b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="color: black;">It was really important to me that Violet have people in her life who believed her, even though many young people with CFS don’t have that. Violet’s family knows she is severely physically ill and are working just as hard as she is to find ways to help. They do not, however, know anything about the thing in her wallpaper—for that, she has to rely on the cat.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p></span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: 18px;"><div style="line-height: 18px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="color: #333333; margin: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="color: #333333; margin: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><p style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: inherit;">ABOUT THE BOOK...</span></span></p><p class="p1" style="color: #4c4c4e; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The house seemed to sit apart from the others on Katydid Street, silent and alone, like it didn’t fit among them. For Violet Hart — whose family is about to move into the house on Katydid Street — very little felt like it fit anymore. Like their old home, suddenly too small since her mother remarried and the new baby arrived. Or Violet’s group of friends, which, since they started middle school, isn’t enough for Violet’s best friend, Paige. Everything seemed to be changing at once. But sometimes, Violet tells herself, change is okay.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p><p class="p2" style="color: #4c4c4e; margin: 0in; text-indent: 12.75pt;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p class="p2" style="color: #4c4c4e; margin: 0in; text-indent: 0in;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">That is, until Violet sees her new room. The attic bedroom in their new house is shadowy, creaky, and wrapped in old yellow wallpaper covered with a faded tangle of twisting vines and sickl y flowers. And then, after moving in, Violet falls ill — and does not get better. As days turn into weeks without any improvement, her family growing more confused and her friends wondering if she’s really sick at all, she finds herself spending more time alone in the room with the yellow wallpaper, the shadows moving in the corners, wrapping themselves around her at night.</span></span></p><p class="p2" style="color: #4c4c4e; margin: 0in; text-indent: 12.75pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"> </span></span><span style="line-height: 1.2;"></span></span></p><p class="p3" style="color: #4c4c4e; margin: 0in; text-indent: 0in;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">And soon, Violet starts to suspect that she might not be alone in the room at all.</span></span></p><p class="p3" style="color: #4c4c4e; margin: 0in; text-indent: 0in;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="p3" style="margin: 0in; text-indent: 0in;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></p><p style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); margin: 0in;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: inherit;">ABOUT THE AUTHOR...</span></span></p><p class="p3" style="color: #4c4c4e; margin: 0in; text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(33, 33, 33); color: #212121; margin: 0in 0in 4.5pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="color: #835894; line-height: 1.2;">Anne Ursu<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></b><span style="color: #4c4c4e; line-height: 1.2;">is the author of acclaimed novels<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><i>The Troubled Girls of Dragomir Academy</i>,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><i>The Lost Girl</i>,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><i>Breadcrumbs,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></i>and<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><i>The Real Boy</i>, among others.

The more time she has to spend in her new bedroom, the more she realizes there is something quite mysterious about the room's wallpaper.<br /><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><b style="color: #990000; text-decoration-line: underline;">What I Thought Of It - Five Observations/Reflections:</b><span style="color: #990000;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span></span>*Anne Ursu sure has a way of creating a story that draws the reader in and showing them a world they have not experienced before.</p><p>*The character of Violet was thoughtful, sympathetic, and full of emotion. I so enjoyed getting to know her throughout the story. </p><p>*I enjoyed how the author interwove Violet's middle-school relationships, her health issues, and the mystery of the attic bedroom.</p><p>*I'm not usually a reader who enjoys magical realism, but the plot worked so well and I was engaged in the story from start to end. </p><p>*Themes of resilience, friendship, and finding your true self came through each and every page.<br /><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><b style="color: #990000; text-decoration-line: underline;">Who Should Read It:</b><span style="color: #990000;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span></span><span style="background-color: #fdfefa;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: inherit;">*Not Quite a Ghost is going to be the perfect story for readers in grades four, five, and six.
