Dear Alexis, Ghosts Don't Eat Potato Chips did take two years to write!  Marcia and I changed it so many different Ghosts Don't Eat Potato Chipstimes-once it was called Crows Don't Live in Haunted Houses.  Auburn Mysteries sounds cool!
     Barbara, I have lots of favorites.  Right now, my favorite is The Lost Princess.  I love the story and cover and it comes out in a few days.  If you want a sneak peek you can listen to chapter one by clicking here and scrolling down to the bottom.  Luckily, if you live close to Hudson, NY you will get to see it early.  They were able to get it for the Hudson Children's Book Festival on Saturday.  Hope to see you there, Debbie

Hi Brooklyn, the Bailey School Kids marry each other!  Wow, I never thought about that.  Marcia and I sent the ideas to Werewolves Don't Go To Summer Campour Scholastic editor (who is kind of like our boss) and she will decide if she wants to do an anniversary editon.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed.  If your class wants to help, you can write to Bailey School Kids editor  Scholastic 557 Broadway NY, NY 10012.
     Mya, I'm glad you like Genies Don't Ride Bicycles.   The illustrator used a hardware man as a model for the genie.  Clacy, I'm so happy you enjoyed Werewolves Don' t Go To Summer Camp.  Destiny, thanks so much for writing, but be careful to never give your address and email to something that will be posted on the Internet.  I preview every one of the Kid's Talk so that no private information is released, but not all sites do that and I want you to be safe.  Unfortunately there are real monsters in this world!  brb, Debbie

Karlee, I hope you are enjoying Aliens Don't Wear Braces.  Good luck with your braces.  I wore braces for 4 years!  Emily, I'm so happy you like the Mermaid Tales series.  The Lost Princess is number five.  I think it's my favorite so far of Monsters Don't Scuba Divethe Mermaid Tales. 
     Elias, I really hope we get to write an anniversary edition of the Bailey School Kids.  It would be so fun!  Maleah, look out for sea monsters!  I actually got to go to Scotland and went to see Loch Ness.  The loch or lake is really, really dark so there could be anything in there-even Nessie! 
     If you live near Albany, NY I hope to see you Saturday.  I will be at the Albany Children's Book Festival all day and speaking at 10:30.  Have a great weekend, Debbie

Vampires Don't Wear Polka DotsThanks Brooklyn and Ms. Clark's class, I'm so glad you like the Bailey School Kids books.  (I am a bit crazy!)  Marcia and I are talking about a new Bailey School Kids book to celebrate our 25th anniversary.  Do you think it should be: 
1.  The Bailey School Kids in Fourth Grade
2.  The Bailey School Kids All Grown Up (their kids have adventures)
3.  The True Story of Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots (with the original ending)
Have a great weekend, Debbie

Dear Gillian, I'm so happy you thought Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots was funny.  I like funny books, don't you?  Delaney, I'm glad Aliens Don't Wear Braces is your favorite.  Aliens Don't Wear BracesA classroom of students gave us the idea! 
     Sara, I'm thrilled you like the Mermaid Tales series.  Say hi to the next mermaid you see, but be careful in the water!  Vivian, there is only one way to become a writer.  You must write a lot, lot, lot, lot.  Hope you'll check out my writer's page
     Olive, if someone invites me to their school and has chocolate covered snails, I promise I will eat one!  Have a great week, Debbie
