Mary Casanova crea historias que importan y que los jóvenes lectores no pueden dejar. Sus narrativas, a menudo extraídas de sus experiencias viviendo en la frontera entre Minnesota y Canadá o de su extensa investigación en el extranjero, profundizan en temas que resuenan profundamente con los niños. Ella ve la recompensa máxima como la declaración de un niño de amor por sus libros, viendo la escritura como una forma vital de comunicación de autor a lector. Casanova describe las palabras como su pincel, su herramienta para explorar el mundo, y se deleita compartiendo su pasión por escribir y leer con audiencias de todas las edades.
