In the movie ROCKET BOYS, you are shown as working in the mine, while your father was recuperating from his injuries. However, in the book, you never worked in the mine during school. Why did you allow such a change in the screenplay? I must tell you that I loved the book many times, over the movie.

Howdy Mr. Hickam -- in your Coalwood series you often mention authors and books you read during your childhood and teenage years. Everything from Robinhood and Harper Lee to Jesse James and John Steinbeck. Since childhood, what have been some of your favorite fiction books or authors to read? Do you have a top 5 authors and top 5 fiction list?

Years ago, I had the privilege of attending the Teacher's Academy at the Space Camp in Huntsville. I was excited when we were told that you would join us one evening. Unfortunately, you had an emergency come up and could not make it. But you still provided all the participants with an autographed copy of Rocket Boys. I cherish it! Thank you for your dedication to educators. ?
