    She’s ELEVEN???? Far too cute , nay, beautiful. And already doing interview! Rock on, Jos.

    LOVE that golem. I’d really like one of those, except somehow those stories never really end well…

    aw, thanks, Tanita — btw, have you read The Golem and the Jinni? Not for kids. I loved it.

    Your dad would be so proud. He always knew she was a genius!

    She’s so articulate. And so much fun. Love her voice. Made me smile today.

    I’m really glad your dad’s website is still up – about once a year, I re-read a lot of it, and always marvel at this guy, who truly had it all and knew it. His adoration of his kids and granddaughter always brings tears to *my* eyes, and I didn’t even know the guy.
