Dear Jessica,
Thank you so much for your letter about what would be your first words if you landed on Mars. You wrote:
Nothing in this universe is impossible if you believe in yourself with all your heart.
I find your message so reassuring, especially because of our difficult situation worldwide as we continue to struggle with the pandemic. Beautifully written words can be so powerful! That’s what excites me most about writing and sharing that experience during author school visits. I also like your drawing, because it reminds me of the daily news reports during the pandemic that featured our healthcare heroes in their protective suits.
Stay well and happy reading,
Jessica
