“I am still a bit mad at you for kidnapping me and putting our children's lives in danger."

"There's no how-to manual for parenting, Oggie. I'm doing the best I can.”
― C. Alexander London, We Dine With Cannibals

“The boy shivered. The bear sniffed the air.
"What do you smell now?" said the boy.
"Danger!" said the bear.
The boy looked alarmed. The bear sniffed again.
"Or maybe marmalade," said the bear.
The boy gave him a dubious stare.
"Possibly both," said the bear.”
― Dave Shelton, A Boy and A Bear in a Boat

Gary D. Schmidt
“I almost cried. But I didn't, because if you're in seventh grade and you cry while wearing a blue floral cape and yellow tights with white feathers on the butt, you just have to curl up and die somewhere in a dark alley.”
― Gary D. Schmidt, The Wednesday Wars

Richard Scarry
“Artists paint pictures. The best artists paint pictures for children's books.”
― Richard Scarry

Polly Horvath
“We read a lot of books. Children's books mostly, because they're always much more truthful than adult books. And much more entertaining," said Mrs. Bunny.”
― Polly Horvath, Mr. and Mrs. Bunny--Detectives Extraordinaire!
