The World's Worst Fairy Godmother (10 page)

Here's me with my daughter. I swear I did not steal her candy!

A rare sighting of my half-mad brother Igor (on the right), star of
Goblins in the Castle
. When I was an elementary school teacher, Igor would visit my classroom every Halloween to celebrate his birthday. For some reason the two of us were never seen together. It was a puzzling mystery. This is a picture of Igor posing with my wife's little brother.

Something has clearly gone very, very right!

Often I give speeches about reading and writing. But sometimes I get a little carried away.

No, seriously, I meant it when I said I get carried away â¦

I not only write books, I read them aloud, too. Here I am recording an audiobook for my company, Full Cast Audio. Whatever I just read has clearly surprised me!

I love my books â¦ they make me happy! I hope they do the same for you. Photo courtesy of Charles Wainwright.
