A sincere, bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who has read, voted and commented along the way.

It's a daunting thing to write a sequel to a story so many people loved. Can it live up to the original? Does it have something new to say?  In the end —did or didn't — I enjoyed visiting with Alice again.

I am especially grateful to the small group of fellow writers who have become my most valued first- readers. Your own talents inspire me and I'm so thankful for your encouragement and ideas.

... and of course my (real) Mum and husband who are nothing like Alice's. Thank goodness. :)
