ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

This was a very interesting book to write. I would especially like to thank Heather Hurley for the opportunity to write it; Karen Davis for her unlimited patience in keeping me on track; Elaine Marmel for her dedication to making sure the book is accurate; Mike Tanamachi for his wonderful creative illustrations; and Jill Flores for her hard work in making it look so beautiful.

Finally, a huge thank-you goes to everyone else who worked behind the scenes making this book the creative work that it has become.
