Thank you for Alice

comment:

I just wanted to say thank you very much for writing the Alice series, since I picked up one of the books, Alice on Board, in 5th grade which is 3 years ago now, I have fallen in love with the series. I got the full series for Christmas 2 years ago and since then I read all the books in order once, and all of them just randomly 1-2 times more, Alice, Lester Ben, and Silvia have become like another family to me and when I’m having a bad day I pick these books up knowing Alice, Liz, Pamela, and Gwen won’t judge me. These books have changed my world for the better and I’m so grateful you wrote them.

Thank you so very much,

I love hearing that you read them all in order–it’s fun, I think, to watch Lester grow up too.  Sometimes when I’m having a bad day, I remember certain scenes too and look them up–especially conversations between Alice and Lester.  Those were such fun to write.
