I really appreciate your sensibility about YA and your more political perspective on girls and some of the unfortunate and very powerful trends in the genre. Very clarifying for me, as an older YA author. Keep it up.

As an animal-lover, I adored Julie of the Wolves and remember it as being one of those 'important' books of my youth--one that I remember loving and reading over and over. Between Julie and Farley Mowat's Owls in the Family, I always felt like nature really mattered and had a place in kids' lives.Joanne Levyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04735440622911669055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4813061146389790146.post-69335819442635938842012-05-22T11:17:21.010-04:002012-05-22T11:17:21.010-04:00This is a lovely tribute, Rachel, and echoes my fe...This is a lovely tribute, Rachel, and echoes my feelings exactly.
