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,
I have only read one of your books probably 15 years ago with my little brother - but remember it quite fondly: Goblins in the Castle. We loved "Bop!". I'm looking forward to reading the sequel this summer. I have a 2 year old son and will be reading your books to him when he's older. Have you thought about writing for a much younger audience (2-4)? Take care.

Hi, Andrea - I love that you still remember Igor and his bopping!!

I've written a handful of picture books, out of print now alas, but nothing for as young as 2. The "Moongobble and Me" books are written at a about a 2nd grade reading level but many parents have told me that their four year olds like hearing them.

Thanks for writing!
