What is your favorite part about writing a book? Do you like it when books get turned into movies, and would you like any of your books to be turned into movies?

Our homeschool book club is reading The Rickshaw Girl soon. We always include food at these meetings. Are there any specific dishes from Bangladesh that you feel represent the culture best, or do you have a favorite dish you think the kids would love?
