The picture is me, my husband and my dog Bogie (age 16) standing on top of a peak named - Patterson, near the California Sierra. We are celebrating his list finish - 99 peaks on the Sierra Club Desert Peaks list. A few years later I completed the list and our list finish (he doubled - I singled) was on Orocopia, near Joshua Tree National Monument. Bogie supervised both events.

Here is an interview at BEA 2008 with Tara Paterson of Mom's Choice Awards.

Engaging Young Readers to participate on Goodreads

Last week I received a postcard. It was from a 9-year-old fan. I’m having it framed and will put it next to my desk as encouragement to keep on writing. This is what we authors dream will happen with our books. Sadly, trying to achieve that goal is not easy. It takes years of work and dedication.

Hi CJ,
Went to your website, what a great, easy to use website. I signed up for a donation for your charity. I am more than happy to get kids reading. I have donated more than 600 books to schools and libraries in Orange County, CA. I'll be forwarding a book. Thanks so much for this opportunity.
All the best.
Thora
