But my favorite question of the virtual session was, &#8220;What&#8217;s it like to be over 60 years old?&#8221; I told him that inside, I still feel 12 years old.  Another student asked if I would ever work with an illustrator to make one of my books into a graphic novel and I said that was a great idea and would love to see it happen with Making Bombs for Hitler. I showed them Five Stalks of Grain by Adrian Lysenko and Ivanka Galadza and suggested they would like it. I also showed them Sylvia McNicholl&#8217;s What the Dog Knows when asked about my current fave book.
