I'll email you all, but in case you don't get the message, please email me with your mailing address. I will pass it along to the publisher, Henry Holt, so that they can send you the book. Congratulations on winning the book! I hope that you all like it.

Thank you to everyone who submitted responses to my bonus questions. I'm sorry that you all couldn't win.

  • Mona
  • Oliver
  • Cuffy
