Marty Mayer asked Hazel Prior:

Hazel, My questions: Would you spend 3 weeks in Antartica, now that you've researched that environment? Do you admire or want to save a species enough to spend that amount time in such a challenging setting? Stay safe and be happy, Marty in Florida

Hazel Prior Hi Marty! Thank you for your question. Now that I've studied Antarctica I would dearly love to experience the place myself, although I'd probably go in the summer and just to the islands, like Veronica did. Unfortunately, travelling long-distance is bad for the planet, so I would need a good reason (as well as lots of money!) to do it. But I do support WWF who do much to preserve the environment, and have 'adopted a penguin' through them. I firmly believe that every little helps. Warmest wishes to you and yours, Hazel.

Tina Fumo-Martin asked Hazel Prior:

Oh Hazel, thank you so much for responding. I'd forgotten I asked you this. My husband passed away 2 weeks ago. I'd just finished your book and was reading another while at his bedside for the last bit of March and two weeks into April. He died on April 14. It's been tough focusing on reading and anything to do with writing. I will get back to it and I'd love to take a look at that web site. Could you pass it on pls?

Wendy Hill asked Hazel Prior:

I am rather ill right now with many serious illnesses and I have been taking care of my 43 year old wheelchair son his whole life. I am depressed and worn out. I read How the Penguins saved Veronica and I was so happy. Then I looked you up and found out there were 2 more penguin books so I ordered them from Amazon. Do you know how happy I was? Thank you for lifting my spirts. Ellie was my first one of yours.
