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.

Hi, Dana -
Mr. Elives' shop is basically the magic shop I wanted to find when I was a kid. I never found it in real life, so instead I started to write about it.
I once brainstormed a list of things you could buy in the shop. A dragon's egg was one of them. So that was the beginning of the idea.
