Ezri tells me about one of her favorite authors.

After reading the book Leonardo the Terrible Monster at naptime, Ezri pointed to the author’s photo on the back flap and said,
“This is Mo Willems.
He has a penis.
He is a grown-up.
He pees in the potty.
He is the author of this book.”

She is ready to introduce Mr. Willems at one of those events where he picks up his numerous awards for writing totally awesome kids’ books. Did you notice how everything she said was accurate and stated in complete sentences?

It should be noted that she was only explicitly told the first, and fifth “Mo Willems Facts”. Items 2-4 she inferred by herself.

I invite Ezri to provide the introduction for all visiting professors at the UCSF cancer center. Although I cannot provide travel expenses, Ezri could do the introductions by phone.

I feel strongly that Mo Willems needs to hear about this. You should email him.

It is surprisingly difficult to find an email address for Mo Willems.

Send him the link via snail mail?

Possibly with spiral art.
