Over a twenty-year career in adult and children's books, Amy Krouse Rosenthal delighted, stunned, and surprised readers with books that ranged from the silly to the serious ⁠— to the beloved children's classic I Wish You More to the genre-defying memoir Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life. In 2016, she published her final book, Textbook Amy Krouse Rosenthal, which she considered her magnum opus. A distinct blend of nonlinear memoir, observational humor, wistful reflections, and interactive connections with readers, the book creates an experience that is unprecedented, unforgettable, and explosively human.
