Hands down, the best author experience I&#8217;ve ever had. \u00a0I could sit here and weep, but I don&#8217;t want to misspell anything. \u00a0The emotional response I had was one of the greatest, of my life. Gary Paulsen gets us, more than I think we get us. \u00a0We being Children&#8217;s Librarians. \u00a0I will always be able to say that I heard Gary Paulsen speak, I have a signed book, and I will never forget this opportunity, first hand, to peek into the world of a master storyteller like Gary Paulsen. \u00a0Thank you Gary for sharing your story."}
