I think one of your most interesting observations you haven’t mentioned is the dual level of your books.
Oh, of course. Well it’s very important to me to always remember the person that I’m writing to, the people that I’m writing to and I’m writing for two people and I see an audience in front of me when I’m writing. I see it in my mind, you know, I have chosen them. But they’re basically two types of people. They’re adults and they’re children, so the books need for me to — for the children to read they need to appeal to the child but they also need to appeal to the adult who’s going to read to the child.
So they’re very multi-layered and there’s a high and a low concept. Sometimes the jokes the adults will get but the child doesn’t really understand and it doesn’t matter because the child, he or she, understands what’s going on in the story.
And oftentimes I approach the art the same way.
Yeah, you do. You really do.
We can make it as sophisticated as we want.
Right.
