• No basta con enseñar a los niños a leer; tenemos que darles algo que merezca la pena leer. Algo que estimule su imaginación, algo que les ayude a dar sentido a sus propias vidas y les anime a acercarse a personas cuyas vidas son muy diferentes a las suyas.

• Lo maravilloso de los libros es que nos permiten entrar imaginariamente en la vida de otra persona. Y cuando lo hacemos, aprendemos a simpatizar con otras personas. Pero la verdadera sorpresa es que también aprendemos verdades sobre nosotros mismos, sobre nuestras propias vidas, que de alguna manera no habíamos sido capaces de ver antes.

• A good story is alive, ever changing and growing as it meets each listener or reader in a spirited and unique encounter, while the moralistic tale is not only dead on arrival, it's already been embalmed. It's safer that way. When a lively story goes dancing out to meet the imagination of a child, the teller loses control over meaning. The child gets to decide what the story means.

• We are trying to communicate that which lies in our deepest heart, which has no words, which can only be hinted at through the means of a story. And somehow, miraculously, a story that comes from deep in my heart calls from a reader that which is deepest in his or her heart, and together from our secret hidden selves we create a story that neither of us could have told alone.

• I think, she began quietly, I think we want... not just bread for our bellies. We want more than only bread. We want food for our hearts, our souls. We want- how to say it? We want, you know- Puccini music.... we want for our beautiful children some beauty. She leaned over and kissed the curl on her finger. We want roses.

• Los niños tienen que tener acceso a los libros, y muchos niños no pueden ir a una tienda y comprar un libro. No sólo necesitamos que nuestras bibliotecas públicas cuenten con la financiación y el personal adecuados, sino también nuestras bibliotecas escolares. Muchos niños no pueden ir a una biblioteca pública y la única biblioteca que tienen es la escolar.

• I am called to listen to the sound of my own heart -- to write the story within myself that demands to be told at that particular point in my life. And if I do this faithfully, clothing that idea in the flesh of human experience and setting it in a true place, the sound from my heart will resound in the reader's heart.
