Hey, Chloe, have fun with your yearbooks. Hopefully I can visit your school next year! Elizabeth, I'm glad you like Aliens Don't Wear Braces. Kaylee, happy to hear that you love Cupid Doesn't Flip Hamburgers. I like the anti-love potion that Eddie and Howie make. Since summer is almost here, it's time to make out a list of things I want to do this summer. It's called a Sand Pail List. I challenge you to do the same. Have a great holiday weekend, Debbie

Hi Mayeli, I'm so glad you and Kate love my books. I have a great time writing them and I plan to make more! Kate, my first book (with Marcia Jones) was Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots. We got the title from something Liza said in the story. We thought if we made the other titles similar kids would know the books went together because the Bailey School Kids wasn't a series at first. The books with the do and does are the Bailey Schools Kids Junior Chapter Books. We wanted to make them sort of the same as the regular Bailey School Kids books, but still a little different so we came up with names like Reindeer Do Wear Striped Underwear and Pirates Do Ride Scooters. Have a wonderful holiday weekend! Hope you have something good to read, Debbie

Joei, it's so cool that you made someone laugh. I love it! Hope you liked Trouble at Trident Academy. Have you seen my mini video about it? Dedmas, please keep in mind that anything posted on the Internet can be traced back to you. Will, I'm so glad you like Pirates Don't Wear Pink Sunglasses. I went to a school once where every kid wore pink sunglasses. That definitely made me laugh! Ashwin, your idea was great! Yes, one of my ancestors did fight in the Revolutionary War. His name was Joel Gibson. Eleanor, I was 27 when I started writing. Kelsey, my favorite series is the Adventures of the Bailey School Kids. My least favorite book is Buffalo Bill and the Pony Express. I have tons of favorites. ttyl, Debbie
