Gratitude for the Glory and the Pizza since 1991

Good Evening, Mr. Korman.
Sir, in 1991, when you visited my fifth grade class in New Jersey, you opened a joy-filled chapter in my life that has lasted for 33 years. I loved the way you spoke about how your editor asked you to convert your English measurements to metric measurements when Canada switched over to the metric system.
Bruno inched his way across the windowsill.
Eh! Talk metric!

Bruno centimetered his way across the windowsill.

Since 1991, I’ve been joyfully quoting your books to family and friends — my little sister and I love to recite passages from your books — and I was thrilled to be able to buy your Bruno and Boots books to my own son.

Thank you, Sir, for adding so much joy and laughter to my life. May you live to 120 and be blessed in all things.

Very Respectfully,

With Prayer and Gratitude,

Shabbat Shalom v’Chaim Tovim,

Neil

Hi, Neil,

Thanks for posting, and mostly for reaching out from 'way back then!' Plus I can always use the blessings!

It's been a long time since I was first visiting U.S. schools and talking about the Bruno & Boots series. The most recent release, which came out two days ago, is called OLD SCHOOL and -- would you believe it? -- it's book #105! I'm not 12 any more, and you must be getting up there too -- it's a long time since 1991! But we're still here, stll connecting, still laughing in all the right places.

Thanks again, Neil. It was great to hear from you. -----Gordon Korman-----
