Don't know how that got past quality control??
How do they know it's Andy and not someone else??
Jesse (with no "i") is definitely a male name - it's the name of a Bible character, King David's father (and also the name of one of my uncles). Jessie is the female name, as in Jessie Land.
Just like J.K. Rowling famously used her initials (I gather she even invented a middle name for the purpose) because she felt that boys would be less likely to read her books if they were obviously by a woman. I must admit, I find it very sad that women still feel they have to do that in this day and age.Tony Summerfield wrote:Initials don't tell the whole story - I am currently reading a book by H.L. Dennis and as this is a current children's author I happen to know from her website that she is Helen Louise Dennis! Just a quick glance at my book file shows me seven or eight children's authors just using initials and they are all women.
Which books did E.H. Davie illustrate, by the way? I recall the name from somewhere but I can't think where...
