Interaktives Transkript & Highlights
1.When my first children's book was published in 2001, I returned to my old elementary school to talk to the students about being an author and an illustrator, and when I was setting up my slide in the cafetorium, I looked across the room, and there she was: my old lunch lady
2.She was still there at the school and she was busily preparing lunches for the day
3.So I approached her to say hello, and I said, "Hi, Jeannie
4.How are you?" And she looked at me, and I could tell that she recognized me, but she couldn't quite place me, and she looked at me and she said, "Stephen Krosoczka?" And I was amazed that she knew I was a Krosoczka, but Stephen is my uncle who is 20 years older than I am, and she had been his lunch lady when he was a kid
5.And she started telling me about her grandkids, and that blew my mind
