Hi Peter, I loved your family story! My two kids (now grown up with their own families) were both adopted and I love how your family became one just like ours did. Best wishes to all of you. Becky PS This won't post unless I ask a question so ?
Peter Mercurio Thank you, Becky! Best to you and your family.

I don't have a question. I just wanted to let you know that I loved the book. I read your story online at some time over the last year, so when I saw the title of the book, I already knew the gist of the story. Your book is beautifully written, and wonderfully illustrated. My hope is that many more adults and children find it as enchanting as I did. Goodreads won't let me post this without a question mark?
Peter Mercurio Thank you so much! Means so much.

Peter Mercurio Hi Sharon, Thanks so much for your message and question. I have considered writing a sequel at some point in the future.

Hi Peter! I just finished reading your FANTASTIC book! What a beautiful story! What did Kevin think when he read the book? I bet he was so excited to read it! I'm a librarian and I will definitely be recommending this to my patrons! <3, Patty Ann
Peter Mercurio Hi Patty Ann,
Thank you so much for reading the book! Kevin loves the book. He knew it was in the works, but hadn't seen or read any drafts until the actual hard cover came out. He has said he's proud of the book. :-)
Best, Pete

This question contains spoilers... (view spoiler)
Peter Mercurio Thank you so much, Stacey. Warms my heart to hear about your grandchildren. Danny and I love hearing stories about kids being adopted from foster care. When folks tell us they are considering adoption, we always ask them to consider adopting a foster child. Bravo to you and your family! xoxo

Did you ever find out how how the baby came to be in the subway in the first place?
Peter Mercurio Hi Trevor, thanks for your question. To date, we've never learned how or who placed our son in the subway.
