“I met senators, diplomats and the President of the United States, Franklin Delan…” — Jean Craighead George

I hope that the message I conveyed in 'Julie of the Wolves' is to tell young people to think things out. Think independently.

There are always the kids who just love animals. Unfortunately, though, people have become afraid of the outdoors.

Oh, those golden-yellow eyes of the wolf! You can feel yourself being pulled in. I knew I had been accepted - and that I had spoken to another species.

Children are still in love with the wonders of nature, and I am, too. So I write them stories in hopes that they will want to protect all the beautiful creatures and places.
