LauraDear Gordon Korman, You have been such an amazing author and you always have inspired me a lot when I read any of your books.My name is Laura. And I have just read your book Restart. After I read it, I realized how good of a book it is. It taught me that even if you have done something awful in the past, you can always RESTART! This book is such an amazing book and I believe that it teaches such a good lesson especially for kids my age. It has inspired me to restart and say sorry. I think that thai is one of the best books I've ever read. I am sure that many children feel the same way I feel, but also CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE A MOVIE! I would love to see the movie and compare how I saw characters and how the directors chose to see them. I would really appreciate it if you made a movie or even just replied to my letter. Now that I read the book I have been very interested in why you chose to write this story. I have met a lot of people that have been needing to restart their lives and I would love to hear why you chose to
write on this topic. If you can then please answer the question that has been stuck with me ever since I have read your book. Thank you!

Hi, Laura,
Well, I won't be making a movie -- that's for a film company, not an author. So I guess I'll just have to answer your letter!
I chose the topic of second chances and forgiveness just because it was the thought that came to me at the time. That's it!
