- White Rock girl
- I'm younger than John, so lots of my "nostalgia" is actually the product of research. I certainly don't find it strange that a reader might want to learn more about the things mentioned in the stories. Sometimes I have to fight (but not very hard) to include some of these: a copy editor objected to my comparing the crouching Dr. Coote to the White Rock girl, because no younger readers will remember the ads for White Rock. But really, I think some of them will happen across an old illustration and recognize the girl, and they'll be happy. Others may look her up in books on the history of advertising.

Book Collecting
Book collecting can be an exciting, if not expensive, hobby. Over the years, fans of John Bellairs have discussed the fine art of book finding and buying, specifically those first-edition hardcovers with illustrations by the late Edward Gorey.
