What she says is true, it was always a battle for her when it came to reading chapter books, and even as a teacher myself, I could not find that spark for her (which killed me being an avid reader myself!). Thank you so much for making a reader out of my girl and for giving her so much to look forward to when it comes to a new book. I look forward to hopefully lighting the reading fire under my own students' bottoms by introducing your books to them. Every child is turned onto reading by different topics and genres. The author that did it for me was Jean Craighead George with "My Side of the Mountain." I couldn't wait to run away and find my own burned out tree! Thanks again for being such an inspiration! Enjoy your writing "vacation," and we look forward to your future works! Warmly, Maria (Julia R.'s mom) Mr. Smith,
