Tiegan: Once I read your books I'm stuck like super glue to them!
Tomie: You had me at "super glue."
Roxanne Roberts: As a result of reading "The War Years" [in the "26 Fairmount Avenue" series] you helped introduce these kids from rural Maine to diversity, but also social intolerance.
Tomie: Thank you for the kind comments. I hope to finish the "26 Fairmount Avenue" books with one last volume.
