A.J. Pearce

A.J. Pearce, Dear Mrs. Bird

Matshona Dhliwayo

Melissa Fay Greene
“Their parents may fill the children’s hours with therapeutic equipment, tutors, drivers, therapists, psychiatrists, and special schools, while what a child wants and needs most desperately is a friend. Often a child longs for a friend despite rejecting everyone who reaches out. Such a child may be convinced to come out of hiding if the proffered playmate is a dog”
Melissa Fay Greene, The Underdogs

Anne Nesbet
“First of all, people are always pretending to be what they are,” said his father. “That’s basically a philosophical question. Part of being something is pretending to be it.”
Anne Nesbet, Cloud and Wallfish

J.K. Rowling
“When I'm really stressed or overwhelmed I turn to biographies of people who've led turbulent lives. I feel it soothing and inspiring to read about people who've endured and overcome.”
J.K. Rowling
