    Hi, I'm a huge fan of your books and I'm looking to buy I want to go home but can't find it anywhere.  On Amazon, it only shows an overpriced used one.  Can you help me find it?  I also can't find The jokes on us anywhere and google said it changed the title into Something fishy at Macdonald hall, is that true?

    Hi, I'm not Gordon Korman, I'm Jade. That's only the old hardcover version of I WANT TO GO HOME. There are newer versions on Amazon for reasonable prices. I can provide the link later. Can't help you with that next one, but Gord can!

    Hi, Ilana,


    Thanks for your interest. Jade has set you straight on I WANT TO GO HOME. It should be readily available. As for THE JOKE'S ON US, original title: SOMETHING FISHY AT MACDONALD HALL, I'm not sure how available that one might be. Try the Canadian bookseller, Chapters/Indigo at   chapters.indigo.ca. They might be the best place to find I WANT TO GO HOME as well.


    Thanks for your support for my work. Happy hunting!                -----Gordon Korman-----

    Where can I get a copy of your much loved Toilet Paper Tigers? My son and I read it over and over but some how over time we lost it. Now my grandson is the right age and I would love to spend time reading it with him, all over again!


    With thanks,


    Mary

    Hi, Mary,


    Wow, that's what I call loyalty! I'm glad the book made such an impression. As you can imagine, it was fun to write, too.


    The best place to search out a copy is the Canadian bookseller, Chapters. You'll find them at:


                                                           www.chapters.indigo.ca


    It's possible that it maybe out of print, or available only as an eBook. Good hunting. Hope it's a hit again!

    For Mary Barrow: I understand if you want the original cover of Toilet Paper Tigers. No denying the nostalgia!. But if you'd like a brand new copy of the book, you should look for GAME ON!, which is a bindup of Toilet Paper Tigers and The Chicken Doesn't Skate, and is available NEW from Scholastic-Canada. (Should be available NEW on Chapters/Indigo and maybe Amazon, eBay, and elsewhere.)
