Topic: Since your book is geared to young children and yet
everyone can learn a lesson from Porcupine’s determination to succeed: When writing
a children’s book do you feel the primary focus should be the action or
pictures to capture the child’s interest or the story line and message to teach
a lesson and encourage them to read it or both?
