This is the reason Kate DiCamillo’s work is so loved.
I can’t wait to read Louisiana’s Way Home. You are my mentor writer, Kate. Thanks for what you do. Nona Wright,
Sounds like another wonderful book. Can’t wait to read it. Thanks!
Loved watching this video!! Thanks for sharing your story, Kate!! I write about home too, and I also love crows 🙂
This my favorite author. Kate’s words and stories pull me into a place I always want to be. I understand and feel. And, I am beyond thrilled that Louisiana now has her own story. I can’t wait to read this book!! For the first time, Kate is coming to my area and I will get to hear her speak. I think this is better than Christmas morning. Thank you for this blog post and including her video.
