The Yellow Paperclip Goes to Portugal

What a nice surprise in my inbox today from Susana, a good friend of May Ann:

Hi Nikki! I don't know if you remember us: we are the twins from Lisbon, Portugal. We commented in your blog a couple of weeks ago. As promised, here is the picture of the two of us holding your/May Ann's fantastic book. We wish you all the best and hope to see many more books from you!

P.S. Oh, and I forgot to say: in the picture, Patricia is wearing the white shirt and I am wearing the brown one.


I'm so happy the Yellow Paperclip found its way to Portugal, but even happier that it has made twin friends. Here's hoping for more books too!

Nikki: It was our pleasure to email you the picture... so glad that you liked it!! We are certain that the Yellow Paperclip will make many more friends around the globe :)

May Ann: hehehehhehe... *shy* we took that picture last Tuesday night. I(Susana) must confess that it is hard to catch me in a photo :P I always like to hide myself behind the camera ;) but we were both happy to do this as we were showing the Yellow Paperclip here in our country :)) the nice writing and beautiful illustration are a source of constant inspiration for us! Sooo veryy happy that you liked the photo of the two of us!!! We also feel blessed for having a new friend in the Yellow Paperclip. *smiles widely*
