Jack Gantos:
I have a student who is a struggling reader who is currently reading your " Whole In My Life" book. It would be wonderful for him if you answered his question: What do you regret most in life? His name is Ricky and he is really enjoying your book. This is one of the first books he has read in all of high school for enjoyment!

Hi Jack- Our English 11 classes all read Hole In My Life last year as part of our reader response theory, social class theory, and narrative writing units. Your memoir was a great hit among our students. When you wrote that, what were you hoping young adults would take from it and has that expectation changed since you've become a bit more chronologically gifted? Thanks! Don Williams, Ames High School, Ames, Iowa
