Children think in pictures, hence in children’s books we have to make many, many pictures, colored pictures. The text is very small, pictures are very big – that is the only way to persuade children to learn to read, because they can learn only through the pictures. The primitive mind thinks in pictures.”",

And the funny thing is, I have adult writer friends [to whom I would say], \"Would you think of writing a children's book?\" and they go, \"No, God, I wouldn't know how.\" They're quite intimidated by the concept of it. And when I say to children's books writers, would they write an adult book, they say no because they think they're too good for it.",
