I have it, both as a series of “comic” books and as an actual cartoon… It is a tremendous piece of work either way… brilliant and moving, just as your reviewer indicates. Thanks!

I was also impressed with the reviewer’s comments from May 13th, 2010 about atomic bombs:

She seems to understand the problems a lot better than most people, regardless of age or level of education completed. And she writes well.

I hope we see more items by her in the Daisy Alliance in the coming years.

Wow. What a paper. I think you’re going to do great things in your lifetime. So wonderful to have had the opportunity to read to your class. Even though my book is so much lighter, I think we’re on the same page: respect of family, animals and our precious land. Keep writing!!!

Some of us have been working for decades, trying to rid the world of nuclear weapons, but your generation will have to finish this task, so stick with it!

One comment: Not everyone agrees that the Japanese were not ready to surrender, no matter what military action was taken against them. For instance one respected historian, Gar Alperovitz, published a book in 1996, “The decision to use the atomic bomb”, in which he argues that Japan would have been defeated without the horrors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and without an invasion.

Maybe you’ll be “a respected historian” some day!

Cheers, Peter, Lawyers Committee on Nuclear Policy

I wish my students at the State University of New York/Albany wrote as well!

Thank you for your insightful essay. I wish more adults, including our elected officials, thought the way that you do.
I encourage you to continue your writing and thinking on this subject, we certainly need your generation to speak out against nuclear destruction.

Best regards,
Steven Starr
