I can identify with this girl – my mother used to say that whenever she couldn’t find me, I was hanging upside down in the apple tree.
I love that, Martha! As a kid, I wasn’t coordinated enough to climb or hang from a tree! But I still spent a lot of time upside down.
Love the spirit and energy of this post and the illustrations!
Thank you, Jessica! Beatrice always puts me in a happy mood.
That COVER! Wow.

Love it! Can’t wait to read it to my kids.
The book looks fun, and I love the way you put this post together.

Anyone else having trouble with the google form? It doesn’t do anything when I click send,
