I only recently realized that Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde is by Robert Louis Stevenson, not H.G. Wells or Jules Verne.
Yesterday I read an excerpt from Louis Sachar's new Small Steps for which, I am glad to know, he takes Armpit as his protagonist instead of Stanley or Zero.
I gave Emlet The Trumpet of the Swan and the Audobon plush trumpeter swan, another in the line of American animals I am giving her. Her bison's name is Wyoming, for American English practice.
That's all my Louis news.
