I was tempted to write Abigail Thomas a letter after reading her collection of short stories Herb’s Pajamas. This is what I would have written:

Dear Ms. Thomas,
I cried. I cried and cried. My lips quivered and my nose and eyes squished together so tightly they squeezed snot and tears out at the same time. I haven’t cried like that since I read Where the Red Fern Grows. Congratulations, Ms. Thomas, you made me fall in love with your characters because of a tiny pair of manicure scissors and a hat with cherries on the brim.
