Our 5th graders are reading Restart right now, but we have a bilingual student who is struggling with it in English. I understand it isn't available in Spanish? Is that correct? If not, do you have suggestions to help this student? He's a very smart young man, it's simply a language barrier. I thought about getting it in audio format, but I don't know the best way to do that for him, either.

Thanks!

Hi, Lorie,

Thanks for posting. There is a Spanish version in the works, but I know it's not ready yet. Sorry.

As for the recorded version, there you're in luck. It's done by Recorded Books:

rbdigital@recordedbooks.com

and it's a prize-winning recording.

I hope it helps. -----Gordon Korman-----

Hi, Sabrina,

Thanks for posting. Re: a Spanish version of RESTART.

I know there is one in the works, but I don't know if it is currently available. Your best bet is to ask the publisher directly.

Scholastic, New York 1-800-724-6527.

I hope your class enjoys the book, and I hope the Spanish translation will be available to you.

Thanks again, -----Gordon Korman-----
