Hello. This is just a quick note to let you know that Peter Sieruta, the man behind the brilliant Collecting Children's Books blog, recently passed away. Peter was a true genius in the field, having worked for Horn Book and with Anita Silvey for many years. There is no one I ever knew who had a greater share of knowledge about the field. His loss is intolerable.
