On twitter, you said "hey, there's a new edition of the book with new illustrations!" to which I then replied "woo hoo! Guess I'm buying another copy of the book!" And so I did. And the Mayor of Los Angeles commented on it. :)

Weeeeellll… for what it’s worth, I *did* send my copy from Brookline Booksmith in a parcel of books for Cat Valente’s cuter-than-a-newly-born-son 3 year old — a long arc of story telling for the future. I have no social media verification that it has been received and loved, but I will take my point (I hope) and sit in the queue, hoping my ticket is called. (If I get a pic, I’ll let you know! The folks up in ME are under snow and storm, of late.)

So he did! Thank you - that was a hoot!
OMG! I'm so excited to see this, and I've purchased a copy for the adorable child of parents who also love your work. Her copy arrives tomorrow. :)
Ordered from my local indie bookstore. Muahaha!
I have one of the Jewish Space Corps enamel pins. It draws lots of compliments and admiring glances. Everyone should get one!
I just bought The Golden Dreidel as a Christmas present for my kid the other day!
Never enough footnotes.
What joy your letters bring me! Hallelujah.
Just sent a copy to a young child. Now I have to figure out how to get it back.
For no very good reason, you are the winner of the Space Laser Button! Please write me and tell me how to get it to you.
I am thrilled to add it to my collection of kitty space lasers. I will serve proudly!
