What is the aim or goal of your writing:
2nd ed. says, " My philosophy in children's literature is contained in Proverbs 22:6 'Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.' It's a beautiful thing to see a child secure in the knowledge that he is loved by God unconditionally."
