Whoo-hoo Madi! I'm thrilled you like Mermaid Tales #4! Did you know that a new adventure just came up about Pearl called Wish Upon a Starfish? Pearl wants to be the star of the school play. Do you think she makes it?
Kayla, thinking of you and hope your surgery goes well tomorrow. Have a great week and God bless, Debbie

Hi Ally!! Riley, so glad you like my stories. It is fun writing with a partner, but I like writing on my own as well. When I write with a partner we often take turns, kind of like playing hot potato-we toss the story back and forth. Lots of things have inspired me from things I did when I was a kid to things my students did to things my own kids have done.
     Suzy, I like funny stories too. I really liked second grade and loved my teacher. I hope you'll love second grade too. Guess what? When I was little my dad used to call me Suzy-Q. Leah, I don't think I've ever written about first grade, but it sounds fun. Ruthie, a book called Eggsheads sounds funny!
     Kayla, I have written 162 books. You can see them all by clicking here. If you click on the series name you can see all the books in that series. I just said a prayer that all goes well with your surgery.
     Noah, there may be more Bailey School Kids books-you never know! Have you seen the Super Specials and the Bailey City Monsters too? The Bailey School Kids Junior books are the newest ones. Hope you'll like them. Have a wonderful week, Debbie

Hi Aiyana and Kate, great to hear from you guys again! Hope you'll enjoy my Kid's Club, there are some games there you might want to try. Aiyana, Marcia and I were both teachers in an old school. Perhaps that helped us to think of a haunted school for Ghostville Elementary. Is your school old? We often use character sketches to help us come up with our characters-what they like and don't like. If you write a story you might like to try doing a character sketch before you start writing. If your parents are on Facebook, have them stop by later today for a chance to win a new book. Have a fabulous Wednesday! Your friend, Debbie

Hi Aiyana, some books are just pure imagination, but some times something in real life inspires them. For instance, my daughter was in school plays and that inspired Wish Upon a Starfish (although my daughter is much sweeter than Pearl!) Hi Sapphire, it would be great fun to visit your school again and I'm so happy you like the Mermaid Tales.
     Kate, lunch would be fun! Please tell your class I said hello. Maybe I could visit some day. You sound like a very fast reader! I'm delighted that you enjoyed Frankenstein Doesn't Plant Petunias and Trolls Don't Ride Roller Coasters. Do you know I'm a chicken when it comes to roller coasters (like Liza)? I do keep in touch with some authors. Authors are nice people!
    Lauren the Blue Kiwi, of course I remember you! Wow, is playing a trumpet hard? I think it would be fun for one of my mermaid s to learn an instrument. What could they play underwater? Ha, ha-bkks is funny. Have an amazing day, Debbie

I agree Celeste! Dolphins rock! I even got to pet one once. They are beautiful creatures. I wonder what they think of us? Happy Dot Day (How will we make our mark on the world?), Debbie
