I used make weird stuffed animals out of socks when I was a kid (subtext: no friends). Maybe I should start doing that again. These are incredible.

Rather well. Rumour has it that it's not the greatest time to be a children's author, and she's had to resort to arts and crafts in order to keep her cat in the lifestyle she has become accustomed to."  Her first book was published after she won a BBC News contest searching for "the next J.K. Rowling." Her books seem to have been critical, if not commercial, successes so far.
