The pages look crisp and well-drawn and I'm going to dive in right now and read it, very exciting! \u003Ca href=\"http://www.simonsays.com/content/ene/search.cfm?N=0&Ntk=ALL&Nty=1&Ntx=mode%2Bmatchallpartial&Ns=P_FORMATSORTGROUP%7C0%7C%7CCP_PUBDATEGAP%7C0&D=little+rock+nine&Ntt=little+rock+nine&Dn=23437&searchtab=4&Nr=AND%28CP_IDENTIFIER%3ATITLES%2CSubsite%3AChildren%27s+Books%29&x=0&y=0\">(Here's the link if you live in the USA.)\u003C/a>\\r\n\\r\n\u003Cimg src=\"https://images.jabberworks.co.uk/lj/ellenbook-5aee3141a1.jpg\">\\r\n\\r\nMy Time Management (Super) Fairy will only let me spend 59 seconds posting anything more, so here are a couple more pictures from today, our fabulous comics salon with Ellen and \u003Ca href=\"http://tozocomic.com\">Dave O'Connell\u003C/a> and the Super Fairy reading Ellen's book at the \u003Cb>British Library\u003C/b>. We saw an amazing exhibition there, \u003Cb>The Ramayana: Love and Valour in India's Great Epic\u003C/b>, of more than 120 17th-century manuscript paintings. I absolutely adored their detail, bright colours and flat perspectives, almost like fantastic comics, in fact.
