Hi Mr. Korman,

Thank you for sharing your talent of writing with us! My dad enjoyed sharing your books as an elementary teacher for 30+ years. I now enjoy reading some of your earlier work with my children today. We would love to see a reprinting of No Coins Please and I Want to Go Home. Our copies are getting quite worn out and we believe a whole generation of readers is missing out on these hilarious stories. Please consider!

Thank you,

The Orians Family

Hi, Orians Family,

Thanks for posting. I'm pleased to hear that my earlier books made a hit with your family. A lot of the material has been reprinted several times, and is even available as Talking Books. Some of them are actually appoaching (gasp) the 50-year mark, e.g. my first book, THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING A MCDONALD HALL. I can scarcely believe that my list now numbers 107 titles! That seems like a lot, even to me. As for reprints, I suspect they may be coming, but I can't be certain. Sorry.

Thanks again for reaching out! -----Gordon Korman-----
