"Our son Aaron was fortunate to have participated. It was an event that was memorable for all the right reasons. First and foremost, it made reading exciting for Aaron, who continues to be a voracious reader to this day. Kitty was relaxed with the children, interested in what they were saying, and respectful as she took their comments seriously. Aaron's reaction to Kitty's interview was 'Kitty was like a regular person.'

As a family of readers, we were thrilled with Kitty's Book Club, and with her!"
