Sometimes I'll just outline a section, not the whole work, and I'll also give myself permission to create maybe three entirely different outlines.

It's fun to play around with ideas, bounce them off other people, and see what jumps out. For MISSING LETTERS, I ran all the word pairs by my kids and my partner. I wanted to see how they reacted to the sounds of the words but also to the ideas for the accompanying illustrations. I also took some of the ideas to my work colleagues, who are experts in children's literacy, and of course collaborating with Leon to fine tune the illustrations. He brought so many clever ideas to the illustrations.(less)

I enjoyed this book from start to finish. The premise has an interesting connection between WW2, the Cold War, and modern times (right up to current events in the last chapter!). And I appreciated how all the pieces moved together and propelled throu ...more
