Hi, Maddie,

Thanks for posting. I'm really pleased to hear that SLACKER and LEVEL 13 have been making a hit with you and your class.

Right now I have no plans for a third book in the series, but I certainly wouldn't rule it out. Would you accept a definite maybe?

Best regards, -----Gordon Korman-----

Dear Mr. Korman,

I really like Slacker and Level 13, but I don’t understand the ending of Level 13. Why is there a toothpaste ad at level 13 in the game? Thanks for writing the best books!

Hi, Ezra,

Thanks for posting. I\\\'m glad you enjoyed the 2 Slacker books.

The toothpaste ad was the real reason why no one could access Level 13 of the game, and the game itself had all but disappeared. The gaming company had a silly gag ending to their game instead of all the world-shattering endings games like that normally have -- a toothpaste ad amid the wreckage of civilization. So the game was banned because the toothpaste company never gave the gaming company permission to name their toothpaste in the game. That\\\'s what copyright infringement means.

OK? I hope you\\\'ll go on to read many more of my books. Thanks again for your comments.
