A real story about Emperors and Carrots!

Here’s a real life story about Emperors and carrots! I received a lovely email the other day from one of my favourite Shanghai librarians who told me that on a visit to the Forbidden City in Beijing recently, her 5 year old girl daughter Daisy, who was passing a piece of ground with a little bit of grass on it, turned to ask her “Is this where the Emperor planted his carrots?” I thought that was really adorable! Here’s a picture of me with Daisy Greenslade when I was in Shanghai in March – isn’t she a cute bunny?!

Sarah, Lam Yin read Run Run Rat as bedtime story on the day we met in TST!
She was so amazed by Run Run’s determination.
Now she understands it is very good to have mission in a person’s life.
Sarah,Thank you

- That’s my great pleasure! It was lovely to meet Lam Yin – please tell her I think she’s very clever to read Run Run all the way through and I’m very glad she enjoyed it! Sarah
