To Sara Crowe, superagent among agents, and to everyone at Pippin, including Holly, Elena, Cameron, and Ashley: all the doughnuts to you.
To my brother, Pablo, for his shared love of story (esto sí va a terminar bien) and his wife, Daniela, for striving to make the world a bit more beautiful each day. To la Mami for those many long days in the basement apartment teaching me that squiggles could be made into words, and words spun into stories, and for keeping books around even under the hardest of circumstances (and for the spelling checks on this book). And to my children, Andreanna and Zachary, who came along and made everything make sense, like magic. (Which, of course, you are.) Thank you for being awesome every day and for understanding when dinner stinks because Momma’s got a chapter to finish.
And to you, reader. You hold in your hands something that for many years I didn’t imagine a girl like me would have a hand in creating, and which you made possible. If gratitude could be spun into sparkles, I’d sprinkle you with thousands of them so everyone could see you shine for the dream maker you are.
