I am going ask you for your age

Dear reader,

You saw correctly. I am going to ask you for your age. No need to add more specifics, and it is fine if you say it is the age of someone else. So where does this sudden curiosity come from? Earlier I found a most endearing comment from someone on one of the pages of this website. Let me share it with you:

Dearest Paul, I am 72 yrs old and I think this is probably the most enjoyable series of books I have ever read. Do you plan anymore of the HILDA books? I certainly hope so. I have read all of them I can find (8), is that all of them?
Love your style and THANK YOU for adding joy in my life.

Naturally I informed the writer of this comment about book 9, and also that book 10 is in the making. What stunned me though was that a lady of 72 actually enjoys the Hilda-books, and that made me curious about the youngest and eldest readers of the series. So if you know someone younger than let’s say 18, or older than 72, who enjoys Hilda and her friends, I would really like to know about it. I’m not going to make this prettier than it is, I’m just curious! You can reply via the link at the bottom of this post, or simply send me an e-mail.
