#PictureBookMonth Theme: Dinosaurs :|: Read How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight? by Jane Yolen #literacy

#PictureBookMonth Theme: Dinosaurs :|: Read How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight? by Jane Yolen #literacy

November 28, 2011 Book Talks, The Process No Comments
Yolen
has written more than 200 books for children and adults. Dubbed by
Newsweek “the Hans Christian Andersen of America,” Yolen’s idea folder
bulges with new stories to write. She prides herself on juggling as many as ten
stories, books, poems, and songs at once, and compares her work habits to those
of a mule train driver: “I hitch 24 horses up to my wagon, crack the whip, and
if one dies along the way, I cut it out of the traces and move on.” [Excerpted from my Jane Yolen profile.]
