This isn't a children's book? Why's he blogging about The Da Vinci Code?
Back in the summer of 2004 this book showed me that:
SHORT CHAPTERS + CLIFF-HANGERS ON EACH CHAPTER = UNPUTDOWNABLE
That summer it felt like every adult relaxing around the pool of the French holiday village was reading this story AND it was being read in so many languages.
So for me, this book became my great inspiration.
I look forward to seeing my stories being read by the pool one summer soon.
