A Question for the Writer in Residence

Last week we had one question for Fredrick McKissack, Jr.

Dear Mr. McKissack: Do you have any pets? Do you ever write about them? Sincerely, Mary

No, we don't have any pets. My son Mark has cat and dog allergies. Mark would like an elephant or a snake, but he may have to settle for a small, non-poisonous turtle. When I was a boy, we had two dogs, two cats, some gold fish, and a box turtle that may have joined the circus. I was never given the full story. Thanks for the question Mary.
