After a recent visit to Furnace Woods Elementary School in Cortlandt Manor, New York, the librarian, Elaine Desimone, asked if she could do a short interview with me. Here it is.

I was at the Mohansic School in Yorktown Heights, NY. The first graders were excellent listeners and had great questions.

Here are two details of the drawings I did during my visit.

One is colored in by the children.

Nice job!


I spent three days at the Thomas Jefferson School in Yorktown, NY. The children were very enthusiastic and good listeners.

I visited the children at the International School of Amsterdam in Holland. A special thank you to the librarian, Paula Morris and to all the students who made my day so enjoyable.

I visited the children at the American School of the Hague in The Netherlands. We had a lot of fun looking at all the sketches, dummied books and proofs. Here is a picture of me reading to some of the children. Thank you to Ms. Kathryn Concannon for arranging my visit.
