has anyone read this?
 
do you know if Aslaug was conceived through ART (assisted reproductive technology)?
 
"THE SECRETS OF the past meet the shocks of the present.
Aslaug is an unusual young woman. Her mother has brought her up in near isolation, 
teaching her about plants and nature and language-but not about life. Especially 
not how she came to have her own life, and who her father might be."

"Ten guards and the warden couldn't have torn me out of those books. Months passed 
without even thinking about being imprisoned....I had never been so truly free in 
my life." - Malcolm X 
 
"Some kids go to the library ... Others to the street. But they can't go to the 
libraries if the libraries are closed." - Officer Dombranski, NYPD 
 
"The best morals kids get from any book is just the capacity to empathize with 
other people, to care about the characters and their feelings. So you don't have to 
write a preachy book to do that. You just have to make it a fun book with 
characters they care about, and they will become better people as a result." - 
Louis Sachar
