DanteMr. Korman:
I teach middle school in California and my kids read silently before class. I read along with them to model reading habits. I read the books that I provide for them on my bookshelf, and one of the ones is your book Restart. I think it would make a great movie, but apparently it hasn’t been made. Yet.
Anyway, thanks for writing a great book. It reminds me of Faulkner for middle schoolers.
Sincerely,
Dante Cabanas

Hi,Dante,
Thanks for posting and for your support for my work with your classes.
There has been an interest in RESTART, and even a film option, but so far no movie. But don't lose hope. There is still a lot of interest in a book that has been on the NYT Bestseller List for over 4 years!
Much appreciation for the reference to Faulkner!
