Counting the number of fingers and toes and ears and eyes that are supposed to go with each person, and the right number of legs for dog and bed and person adds up to a lot of counting. At the time I made that picture I just wasn’t counting enough. I don’t know just how that extra robber slipped into bed in the book about Homer.

You are wondering about something that I have been wondering about for a long time too. What we would like to know is how the extra robber got in the bed on page twenty-five?ĭid the publisher make a mistake? Did you make a mistake accidentally or did you put him there on purpose to see if children are good detectives? In some of the pictures there are four robbers. All through the chapter, “The Case of the Sensational Scent,” you speak of four robbers. We are wondering about one thing in Homer Price. We have enjoyed reading Make Way for Ducklings, Lentil and Homer Price. We are three girls from the Jackson School in grade 7B. Here’s something that helps explain the discrepancy.

Some children might notice that the picture in the book doesn’t match the story, on the page with all the robbers in bed.
