For years, I’d been trying to remember a book I read during middle school SSR (silent sustained reading). I couldn’t remember much about it except that I loved it. I recently described it to a colleague, and she used her Magic Librarian powers to determine it was Who Is Bugs Potter? So I bought a used copy, and I’m rereading it. Thanks for a welcome blast from the past!

Hello Mr. Korman,

I am trying to locate a NEW copy of WHO IS BUGS POTTER? for my son. It was a book that he enjoyed when he was going to school and learning to play the drums. Now at 41 he would like to give this book to my granddaughter who is going to be 8 on April 1st. Do you have any suggestions as to where I might be able to purchase this copy. GOOGLE is not helping me.

Thank you for all those greats books you wrote for kids.

Hi, Kathy,

Thanks for posting. I'm pleased to note that WHO IS BUGS POTTER has had a long history in your family! Mine too! I was 15 when I wrote it, and that was more years ago than I care to recall!

Are you in Canada? For Canada I recommend Scholastic, at 1-800-268-3860. They're the original publisher.

Also in Canada, the bookseller Chapters-Indigo. That's chapters.indigo.ca

In the US, there's Scholastic, NY, 1-800-724-6527. And try your local bookseller. But the best bet is Canada. The book is quite old, and originally published first in Canada.

Happy hunting. And thanks for your support for my work. -----Gordon Korman-----
