Some of us went to Porter Square Books for a reading and question and answer time and others went to a reading in a Jamaica Plain library. I had already heard her speak at a children’s literature conference so mostly I just wanted to watch the students faces when they got to meet her. At one point in her talk she mentioned the book, If You Come Softly, and spontaneous applause erupted. She told us the applause was better than a gold medal on her books!
