Dear Suzy, I do have my Christmas tree up. It is 12 foot tall! Your story is exciting. I hope everyone is all right! For your report, I suggest you look at my book report page for lots of helpful information.
Good luck!
Brianna, I enjoyed visiting your school and I'm so glad you like my books. Do you have a favorite? It snowed here and made me want to read winter books! Best, Debbie

Dear Mary, a forum is a place for a discussion. So I guess this is a type of forum about books. Drake, I did play the Oregon Trail when I was a kid. I usually died of disease!
Genies Don't Ride Bicycles Heather, in Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots we (Marcia and myself) believe that Mrs. Jeepers turned into a vampire monster in the hall. What do you think? To 'no name' person, I understand your mom's concern and I'm glad you like the Mermaid Tales. Renee, even if you are not a fairy you can be kind and helpful. In fact, I am writing a story something like that! Of course, my newest book is about a mergirl who wants to catch a fairy.
Francine, you have been busy. I enjoyed your fan fiction of Pirates Don't Wear Pink Sunglasses, Genies Don't Ride Bicycles, Martians Don't Take Temperatures, and Aliens Don't Wear Braces. Guess what? In fourth grade I had a fabulous teacher named Mrs. Forker. Have a super awesome, fintastic week-Debbie

Dear Drake, It was very cool to visit your school. Actually I have a story that I've been working on (off and on) for a Frankenstein Doesn't Plant Petunias few years about a wagon train! Perhaps you'd like to check out my writing page for ideas for your story. Good luck!
Thanks Suzy. Riley, I used to live in California! I'm so glad you like Mermaid Tales. Do you have a favorite? Merry Christmas to you! Francine, the Bailey School Kids books were named after my grandmother, Lilly Bailey. Inappropriate post will be deleted. Very rarely the computer will be blocked. In extreme cases the post can be traced. I enjoyed your story that was similar to Frankenstein Doesn't Plant Petunias. Best, Debbie

Dear Inka, I'm so glad you like my books. Theresa, Angels Don't Know Karate appears to be out of stock at Scholastic. Unfortunately, I have no control over when they will reprint it. It is available on Amazon however. Yes Sue, my midde name really is Sue.
A big hello to Kanyah, Alex, and Hadley. Huria, the next Mermaid Tales book comes out next May. It is called The Narwhal Problem and is already available for pre-order! Francine, I love Jesus too. I do not believe in destroying books. I'm glad you like the Mermaid Tales. I think you have a pretty name. I enjoyed your retellings of Leprechauns Don't Play Basketball, Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots, and Werewolves Don't Go To Summer Camp.
Suzy, I used to live close enough to New York to ride a train into the city. I saw a casting call for extras in a movie and since my daughter was interested in that, I took her up there. It was a long, long day. I didn't know how much waiting would be involved. I was in the very back of a crowd scene, but my daughter actually ended up in a scene because they placed her beside the stars! I do know how to ski, although I haven't done it in a few years. You have a knack for writing scary stories. I have sold 166 stories to be made into books. Have a blessed week, Debbie

Dear Francine, I'm glad you like Vampires Don't Wear Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots Polka Dots. I don't recommend it for most first graders because it might be too scary. Your story sounds familiar.
Zidi, good luck with your book club! Tiffany, I hope you try to read one book this month. There are so many different books to try! Have a great week, Debbie
