This is something that she truly deserves!!!! She has done such a good job of pulling kids away from video games, and television, and actually getting kids intrested in reading again!! That's a hard thing to do! Go JK!!!

Aw, gotta love that she's a sleep deprived mother, too! She deserves every award they can give her. I still think she should be #1 on the New York Times best sellers list - of all books, not just children's.
