Hi, Mr. Redlin & Students,
Thanks for posting. I’m pleased to hear that RESTART went over well with your class, and that SCHOOLED has become such a staple with you!
Your questions: There will probably not be a sequel to SCHOOLED. The charm of the book was really Cap’s newborn-baby innocence, which he doesn’t have any longer. Even a prequel wouldn’t work because, previously, he was on the farm alone with Rain. So unless I come up with something amazing, SCHOOLED is a standalone. As for a movie, that isn’t up to me. Authors write books, and film companies make movies. It has ever been thus, I’m afraid. Sorry.
But my booklist is very close to 100 books long, so I hope you’ll have at it!
Thanks again, and thank the class for me too. —–Gordon Korman—–
