Question of the Week - Question of the Week #5: Which was "the one?"
"The" book for me, that first one that set my imagination afire, was The Just-So Stories by Rudyard Kipling, in particular "The Elephant's Child" and "How the Alphabet was Made". Each story was like a visit to a different world, a different time, with unique and memorable characters. I wanted to write a story, too. Since then I've read it to my daughter and to many other children.
