- My youngest [child], Lucy, had a scary time wondering what it would be like to die. I had long before that made up my mind about what was going to happen when I died. But I wrote "Tuck" to help Lucy understand what life is all about - that we all get born and we all have to die. It's a subject I never thought I'd write about, but there it was. I wanted to be sure Lucy would not grow up scared.
