Dear Raquel, It was so sweet of you to ask your reading buddy what kind of books she likes. I hope she will enjoy The Lost Princess! You might even want to try one of these party ideas or something from this teaching unit, depending on her age. Have fun!
Amanda, my Grandma Bailey was very special to me. In fact, a series I wrote called the Bailey School Kids is named after her! I am looking forward to chatting with kids in Morristown today. Have a great day, Debbie

Dear Kimberly, Thank you for catching that in Dream of the Blue Turtle. I will doublecheck with my editor to make sure we have that corrected in future copies. You rock!
Amanda, please tell your grandmother I said hi and have a great WORLD READ ALOUD DAY, Debbie

Dear Sarah, Thanks for the great story about a new Twist and Shout school. I love the name Mortimer! Hope you'll check out my writing page.
Amanda, bookstores are super too! Madelyn, you guessed it. Babies can be stinky at times. Kimbely (or Kimberly), thank you for your fintastic ideas. Did you know I have written other books beside the Mermaid Tales? You can find all my books on my book page. By clicking on the series name, it will take you to all the books in that series. Here is a printable list. Maybe they have some of them at your school library. Stay well and don't get the flu (wash your hands a lot), Debbie

Dear Madelyn, my next Mermaid Tales book is The The Winter Princess Winter Princess. Pearl is selected to be the next princess for the Winter Festival, but something very little and stinky threatens to ruin the celebration. Can you guess what it is?
DJ, my grandmother always took Sunday off from her job of sewing for other people and it is part of my faith, so I like to follow her example.
Amanda, maybe whoever home schools you will consider taking you to the public library if there's one close. It's free and most have great programs. February is library lovers month! Have a great week, Debbie

Unicorns Don't Give Sleigh Rides Dear Raquel, I love your explaination for how mermaids and unicorns began. That was how myths were created.
DJ, I write every day except for the weekend. I don't work on Sundays, although I sometimes do on Saturdays. Amanda, all your cats made me think of a story I used to read aloud when I was a librarian, called Millions of Cats by Wanda Gag. Maybe your school library has it in their picture books. Have a great day, Debbie
