    Hi! 

    I first read your Bruno & Boots series when I was about 10...back in the early 1980's. My son is 9 and loves your stories...but I only have two in my personal collection. Do you have any leads on new versions of your books? I can see them listed here on your site, but the "order now" button doesn't seem to be functional. Help!

    Big fan, then and now!

    Megan

    Hi, Megan,


    Thanks for posting. I'm glad to hear you're raising a fan! I can't ever have too many!


    My site doesn't sell books, but the early stuff is readily available in stores or online at Amazon. If you're in Canada, it's usually Chapters-Indigo. In the USA you can't go wrong with Barnes & Noble.


    Hope they're as fun as you remember!                                                   -----Gordon Korman-----

    Hi, Moshe,


    Thanks for posting. I'm glad you're such a big B&B fan. Right now I have no plans to expand the series, but I would never say never. So the best I can give you is a definite maybe. Will tat do?                -----Gordon Korman-----

    To jump into this conversation, my son (9 yr old) and I have managed to cobble together all of the Bruno and Boots books. Last night we finished the last one (who would have guessed Mrs. Sturgeon??). My son loved them all, but, was immediately saddened by the fact that they're now over. If it helps, you have another generation of Bruno and Boots fans who would love to see what those two are up to these days!

    Hi, David,


    Thanks for posting. All 7 of them? Really? I'm impressed! And so glad your 9-year-old enjoyed them.


    What are Bruno & Boots doing now? They're probably pillars of the community, raising families of their own and wondering how kids can be such a chore!


    I don't know if I'll ever write about them again, but I would never rule it out. Would you accept an indefinite maybe?
