Ok, her books always make me cry. Ok, fine. FINE! That wasn't a very good clue. Here's a better one. She writes the One Last Wish books. ------------------ "I used to hate math because it had to many numbers. Now I hate math because it has to many letters." ~Me, in Algebra.

'The Lion , the Witch and the Wardrobe'' by CS Lewis Q? Who wrote the 'Screwtape Letters' to whom? Q? Which play includes such characters as : Sir Archie Mc Sarcasm and Sir Callaghan O'Brallaghan? (Glad you got some deodorant, ReannaZ!!)  [This message has been edited by ren32 (edited 01-14-2001).]

You got it Vic! Now that wasn't so hard, was it?  As to your first question Ren: The book is a series of letters from a veteran devil, Screwtape, to his young devil nephew, Wormwood, who has just embarked to his first attempt to tempt a human soul. Second question: Love-ŕ-la-Mode! What a lovely page I found on the Fenimore Cooper family! Here's another: What did Sherlock Holmes keep in the toe of a persian slipper? Good Luck!
