The interviews section includes two interviews conducted by the editor, before, after and during her trip to the ALA conference in Orlando, Florida, with Mark Wayne Adams, the award-winning illustrator, and Edward Meyer, the Vice President of Ripley's Believe It or Not Their replies are frank, surprising and informative. For the first time, a couple of the interns have stepped up to help add a new perspective.
