KathrynHello Mr. Korman,
I am reaching out to you because I thought you should know about the impact your writing has been having recently in my life. I am a teacher librarian in Ajax, Ontario and we have two shelves full of your books. Although they often get signed out, I have to admit I had never read more than one or two chapters (or back cover) when promoting your texts.
It took the high praise you received from my own son, who is now in grade 6, for me to read your book \"Faker.\" I absolutely loved it and was on edge debating each ethical dilema. He could not wait for me to finish it so that we could discuss each part, especially the ending, in detail. He and I even wrote an epilogue as we imagined Trey meeting his college roommate Logan for an epic reunion. My son is now reading his 9th book by his favourite author - you.
At school, I am able to confidently recommend your books to my students having now read many of them. My students are really loving your books and the two shelves are almost empty.
In the last few months, your books have brought my family and school so much joy and I wanted you to know. Thank you again for writing and inspiring us.
Kathryn Park

Early next month, HYERGIFTED will be released, and I hope you'll both want to read that one too. I also hope a lot more of my stuff (with the new one, there will be 107 of them!) makes it to your shelf! Laughs guaranteed, and even some suspense!
Thank you again! -----Gordon Korman-----
