I believe that thisinvitation was the beginning of the storybook. Expalla too me up on it and wrote:
There was no denying the look in her eye
she loved him more than she realized
his trip to Oz would be long and trying
but she knew he would return
with the heart ,brains , and courage
her little monsters would need to survive.

(the note at the time) …I had reservations about the poem I matched with the painting here and so took it down. So, in the spirit of collaboration, if you, or you and your kids, or your kids, or anyone else would like to offer poems, captions or stories to accompany this picture I will submit them to the committee (Broadus and Naomi) and we will publish them here…
