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 Bruce,
Thank you for your imagination. Weve been reaping the benefits of it every night for several weeks now. My seven-year-old had me read one Moongobble book after the next. (It wont be long before she can re-read them herself.) And we just finished Mad Brownie. She was left with one question about the latter (SUBTLE SPOILER ALERT FOR ANYONE WHO HASNT YET READ/FINISHED IT. AVERT THOSE PEEPERS!):
Does Ms. Kincaid become royalty due to her lineage and place of residence at the end of the book?

Hi, Annabelle -
What a lovely message! Thank you. My wife and I had so much fun creating the Moongobble books, and it's really good to know when a young reader such as your daughter finds such delight in them.
SPOILER ALERT:
To be honest, I hadn't thought too deeply past the end of MAD BROWNIE, but yes, I do believe your daughter is correct in her speculation!
