I love the idea, the illustrations and the words. I wouldn’t change a thing. I think it’s a great start. If you would be so kind and thoughtful as to offer her your own feedback, it would be appreciated.

We are forming new kinds of communities in the digital world, they can be helpful, supportive and encouraging. You are welcome to join in this new interactive way in which readers can participate in the work of writers in a helpful way. You can e-mail Rachel at [email protected] or you can reach her at her increasingly popular blog.

Let her know what you think. Rachel listens. And one day soon, you’ll be able to read this neat book and see how it all turned out.

Thanks. We are building a new world together in a new way. Cable news and angry political blogs aren’t the only way to communicate online. The outside world hasn’t quite figured out yet how not to be mean and hurtful. We are making our own start.
