I can't contain how enthusiastic I am about working on books for kids.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I didn't start working on children's books until I got a job at a book warehouse on the children's floor. When I started reading some of the books, I was so impressed.
I'm just trying to get kids motivated to be readers by connecting them with a book they like.
If my books can help children become readers, then I feel I have accomplished something important.
I feel lucky that my career so far has included books for adults and books for kids. They're equally important to me, and I hope I get to continue writing both.
I like working in children's books because it gives rise to such a variety of jobs. One month it may be a picture book, the next a retelling, the next a play, a short story or the start of the next novel.
Books are such a great way to spend time with your children, open lines of communication with your children, and just build that strong foundation.
I love making books for children. Big kids, little kids, old kids and new.
I read a lot of books to my children, and they all seem really good. I think people have gotten really good at children's books.
I think I work much harder on the children's books. I suppose I enjoy that. I find it interesting that although there are more than 30 books in the Discworld series, it is the four that were written for children which have won the awards. I've never been quite certain why this is.
I have so little patience with the whole Y.A. book thing. As far as I'm concerned, you either read books for children or you read books for adults.
