Mr. Korman,

I had the pleasure of hearing you talk in person at Marie Curie STEM Elementary School in Pasco, WA two years ago. I was in the middle of my student teaching experience and my mentor teacher had made arrangements to have you come and visit our school. Each grade had just finished reading one of your books as a whole class. The 5th grade classroom that I was student teaching in read your Island series and loved it!

I am now teaching in my own classroom – 6th grade ELA/History in a small, private Christian school. 

I wanted to reach out to you because I have a student who is very interested in publishing a book that he is writing. He just finished reading one of your books from my classroom library and was inspired by the fact that you published your first book when you were close to his age.

Do you have any advice for how I can help him with this? I would love to encourage and help him through this process, but I’m not entirely sure where to start. 

Thank you so much! All of my students really enjoy reading your books.

Sincerely,

Cara Frayer
