I was catching up on a older version of a
WOW! newsletter, and came across this great quote that
Esther Hershenhorn attributes to a friend in her interview there:
“Children’s book creators are actually long-ago friends from another time and place who have simply and suddenly reconnected.”

I made a few of those connections last weekend, and I must say that they are always eminently satisfying. Although in one case, it was not a person. It was a book. A delightful and instant long-lost friend sitting on a library shelf.
Where do you plan to connect with some "long-ago friends" this year?
