Books for children require absolute sincerity and purity. To create something real, you must strip away all that is superfluous, all that is artificial, all that is so common in adult prose. What remains must be only goodness, beauty, joy, light, and love—only the most valuable and important things, only the things you would want to give your children. But this is how books for adults should be written, too…And perhaps, this is just how we should live as well…

That if I’m reaching out through my books,
