[Amir]

Dear Mr. Korman,

 

My name is Amir, and I’m a 15-year-old student from Kazakhstan, currently in 9th grade. In our English class, we were assigned to read a book in English and try to contact the author. I chose your book Restart — and I really enjoyed it!

 

The story was very interesting and made me think a lot. I especially liked how Chase changes and becomes a better person. It was inspiring to see that everyone deserves a second chance.

 

I would be very grateful if you could send a short reply. I just need to show my teacher that I contacted you. Thank you so much for your time — and for writing such a great book!

 

Sincerely, Amir

Hi, Amir,

Thanks for posting. I'm pleased to hear that RESTART went over so well with you. Thanks for reaching out to tell me so. I'm also gratified that the theme -- second chances -- was obvious to you.

Yes, English teacher, he did write to me, and get a reply. And I should note that his use of the English language is impeccable too!

                                               Kindest regards,                                                 -----Gordon Korman-----
