Welcome to the Guestbook!
I’m always eager to read your comments about my books and stories, so please feel free to pitch in. Here are a few things for you to know:
1) I answer the messages here personally.
2) No message shows up here until I actually answer it to prevent spam and other inappropriate postings. So there will sometimes be a delay before your message posts, especially if I am traveling.
3) Teachers, a gentle request: Please do not have multiple children send me variants of the same message. A group email is much easier to respond to and not such a drain on my time. My thanks in advance for being alert to this.

Dear Mr.Coville,
I have been reading your book "Aliens Ate My Homework" to my fourth and fifth grade classes and they love it! During artistic response time many of them have fashioned aliens out of Model Magic (Grakker is their favorite character) and painted intergalactic landscapes. We have also made constellations out of mini marshmallows and toothpicks. In addition,the book has inspired many good conversations about bullying and our responses to being bullied. Thanks for all that you do!
Sincerely, Mamie B. Rock

Hi, Mamie -
Many thanks for this message. As you may know, I'm a former teacher myself. Using books with my kids was my favorite part of each day, and it thoroughly delights me to know that other teachers are now doing the same with my books. I love know about the projects and discussions!
All best,
BC
