Feedback
Just received feedback from Farmer. I'm not feeling well. I won't comment on the comments except to say, they want me to picture the dead body, full view in the casket.
I think I remember you blogging about this before. Weren't you concerned about showing the body? My hubby is a photographer for a newspaper and they're not allowed to show bodies in a photo. It's just not allowed. Should we in children's books? -Robin
Wow, tough one! I suppose the easiest thing to do is to make the person look like they are sleeping with a faint smile? Certainly have the eyes closed...rather an odd request, REALLY!

Ooh, uh, ok. That's a tough one.
