From My Mail

    Here are some lines from the kids' mail I answered this week that made me smile or touched me.

I really like your books because in Touch Blue Libby reminds me of me because we are both impatient and squirmy. --Leah

Are you superstitious?  --Daniella

My favorite part of the book was when Catherine was at OT with her brother David and mom and Jason came over and started talking to Catherine and Catherine had made the "Stinks A Big One" card and then Jason said that about the speech woman and Catherine and Jason started laughing. --Kobi

When I take my cousin places, we receive looks, stares, and come across people who pretend we aren't there. --Sarah

My parents always wanted me to read, but I always found books uninteresting or like doing chores. Your book was different. --Caroline

Hearing from you would be a dream come true! Not much happens to a 6th grader from Nebraska.  --Tess

I almost got absorbed into the book and I almost want to read it again!  --Alexa

Your book had a slow start but a great middle and end.  --Owen

David would put toys in the fish tank when he knew he shouldn't of. Then he would tell on himself. --Nick

I would be hesitant if I went to a pond full of muck with a girl I just met and had to touch the bottom. UGH!!!! --Mary Kate
