AKR: ''The Elegance of the Hedgehog'' by Muriel Barbery and ''Everyone is Beautiful'' by Katherine Center.
TL: Kids books: [[''The Incredible Book-Eating Boy '' by Oliver Jeffers]], [[''Scaredy Squirrel '' by Melanie Watt]] and A Penguin Story by Antoinette Portis. I know these are great books because the ideas are simple yet brilliant, the executions are inventive, and I'm insanely jealous that I didn't think of them first.
* '''BB: Which book has most influenced you and do you still have a copy?'''
AKR: Children's: ''Fortunately'' by Remy Charlip, yes. And [[''Madeline '' by Ludwig Bemelmans]], yes. Grown up: [[''Remote '' by David Shields]]. And yes.
TL: ''Pagoo'' by Holling C Holling and Lucille Webster Holling. Probably not the greatest kids book ever written, but my mom curled me up in her lap and read it to me when I was five, so it's indelibly etched into my heart.
* '''BB: Thanks a lot, Amy and Tom! We can't wait to see the new books!'''
'''Editor's Note''' We also have a review of Amy's [[Textbook Amy Krouse Rosenthal by Amy Krouse Rosenthal|memoir]].
