Addition to Estes article
Hello, Lindalautrec. Thanks for the interesting addition to the article about Eleanor Estes' inspiration for The Hundred Dresses. Do you have a reference for it? I'd hate to have someone remove it because it isn't footnoted, but I don't have a ref for that myself. Thanks.Tlqk56 (talk) 03:51, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi! I'm not sure how to use User talk, and I appreciate your note and interesting bio. I read it on the back cover of the book. It was written by Eleanor Estes' daughter. I'll try to find it. It is/was one of my favorite books as a child.

Answering here is fine, as I put a temporary watch on your page. I do hope you can find the ref, as it is an interesting fact that adds some real life to the article. I think citing the edition of the book and saying something like "back cover" for page should be enough. But there are some people out there who can get kind of mean about unreferenced material like that, and I prefer to avoid them as much as possible. It is an amazing book - it used to make me cry when I read it.Tlqk56 (talk) 14:07, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
