“Far beyond the moon and stars
Twenty light years south of Mars
Spins the gentle Bunny Planet
And the bunny queen is Janet!”
Rosemary Wells

“According to how gifted we are, we are all given a large or small key to this treasury of wonders. I have been blessed with a small key to the world of the young. It's a place where good and evil are clearly stamped. It's a place where the better part of human nature triumphs over tragedies, and where innocence rides high. It is a great pleasure to write there, because the young have what the rest of us only envy, and that is a belief in goodness and perpetual hope. ”
Rosemary Wells
