    Thank you, Donna. I hope the book will help kids accept others who are different in spite of their "slime."

    Hi Donna and Jan, I just shared this book with a five year old I've been teaching to read. He loves the illustrations. He's got a huge appetite for books (I think I have a small part in that love.) Also shared Jan's "Signs of Trouble." Keep up the good work!

    It certainly takes a talented writer to make a story about a worm sound good, but apparently Jan has the talent! Thanks for sharing what sounds like a really cute story with a most valuable lesson.
