Happy Birthday, Patricia MacLachlan! May your day be more perfect than the moon and filled with adventures as heartwarming as Sarah's prairie tales. You've given us timeless stories that make even plain and tall seem extraordinary—though we're still waiting for your secret on how to win a Newbery Medal without breaking a sweat!From Skylark to Caleb's Story, you've captured hearts young and old, proving that simplicity can indeed be magical. Here's hoping your birthday is filled with laughter, joy, and perhaps fewer chores than Sarah had on the farm. Cheers to another year of storytelling brilliance—plainly wonderful!
