I was reading The Little Prince to my kids at night, and when we were done, they spent a few weeks talking and thinking about it, puzzling it out. I was left with a deep desire to write a book that left readers puzzling in that way...
Then, the next book I read to the them was My Side of the Mountains, and they were super excited by the idea of a kid living alone, without adults.
Somehow, the ghosts of those two books got together in my head, and after some months of dancing around in there, produced Orphan Island!
Thanks for asking.

First I have to apologize. I accidently placed my review under the wrong bibligraphic entry, it should have been for Kindle! I suppose it won't matter soon. Sorry. As for my question- Will there be a sequel? Are you working on one? It seems like it wold make a really cool series!
