    Thanks for an enjoyable interview, Sarah and Alexis. I hear you on the language packs — I grew up with parents who spoke primarily Dutch until my older sibling started speaking English when I was two. I can generally follow simple conversations; however, I have no Dutch output (think of the limited vocabulary of a two year old). I’m always impressed with parents who manage to rear bi- or tri-lingual children.

  2. Leigh Kramer says:

    This was such a great episode! I particularly enjoyed hearing about how Alexis developed her autograph. I’d never thought about why it might be helpful to distinguish it from how you regularly sign your name.

  3. BrandanWH says:

    Hi! I thought Alexis mentioned a book by “Melody Johnson” but I didn’t catch the name. Can you please confirm/deny if my brain made that up? Thanks much

  4. SusanE says:

    @BrandanWH, I checked the transcript and it mentions Too Good to Be Real by Melonie Johnson.
