     Mr. Gordan Korman,

    Hello Mr. Gordan Korman! We are Juni, Maddie-Lee, and Quinlan. We are in 6th grade. We are from a school in Northern Georgia. Our summer reading was your book, Restart. We loved this book, and thought it was very realistic. I think this blog really tells the story well.  

    In our English class this year, we made a blog about Chase Ambrose and his life throughout the story. We added our own little tweaks and perks to this blog and we hope you like it. We had to include 2 songs, 3 images, an about me, and 3 blog posts about the beginning, middle, and end of the book. We had to do this fun assignment because we are studying character traits. 

    Here is the link to our blog:

    Thanks for taking the time to read our blog post. I hope you enjoyed it. We worked really hard on it and we hope you like it! May you please give us feedback, if you have the time. If so thank you very much, we would love to hear from you! 

    -Sincerely, Juni, Maddie-Lee, Quinlan, and Easton.

    Hi, Juni, Maddie Lee, Quinlan, and Eason. Thanks so much for sharing this with me. It's awesome! I think you did such a great job getting inside Chase's head.


    I'm glad RESTART was such a hit in Georgia!

    Hi Mr. Korman,


    It's Quinlan. I'm in a Tome club now and still love your books. For Tome this year, your book The Fort is one of the books I am starting to read. I love your books and your story telling. I hope you read this. I just remembered this page and currently have it bookmarked. 


    Keep Writing!!! -Quinlan

    Hi, Quinlan,


    Great to hear from you. I remember your one-third of a letter from your 6th grade class.


    Thanks for your loyalty to my work. Did you know THE FORT is my 100th book? I'm pretty proud of the way it turned out. I hope you enjoy it.


    Thanks for keeping in touch.                                                                ---Gordon Korman---
