Dear Kayla, What a nice surprise. I'm so glad you Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots graphic novel are enjoying my books and are writing ones like them. I'm curious, which series is your favorite? Here are my different series. Since you like writing so much, I wonder if you've visited my writing page and if you'd like to enter my writing contest.
Lily, the Bailey School Kids are quite different from the Mermaid Tales. I am curious to see what you think of Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots. Your librarian might like to know it will be coming out as a graphic novel in August. What do you think of the different covers (done by different artists)? Do you like one more than the other?
Ella L., I agree! Every day should be Earth Day! Have a super wonderful weekend, Debbie

Dear Ava, Happy Earth Day! My dogs are named Witches Don't Do Backflips Carmen and Blue. They are both greyhound rescues. My favorite color is blue and I have three wonderful children. I like Patrick from Sponge Bob too! He is funny. I'm so glad you like the Mermaid Tales books.
Lily, you'll have to let me know what you think about the Bailey School Kids books. After flipping on the trampoline, you might like Witches Don't Do BackFlips! Have a blessed day, Debbie

Dear Saryn, You must have taken the Which Mermaid am I? quiz on the Mermaid Tales activity page. I am a mix of all of them I think! Even though I know there are probably not real mermaids, there is little part of me that thinks it would be really cool if there were! Maybe at the very bottom of the sea?
Lily, I like your cool abbreviations, especially ^ wtih happy. Good luck with all your soccer games and have fun!
Ella L., here is a link to how to do my writing contest. It's over at the end of this month. I hope you'll give it a try. Maybe you can have sea dragons in the story! The prizes will be split between grades 1-2 and 3 and 4. So far, the only entries have been in first and second grades! I hope you'll give it try, Debbie
