Dear Mr. Korman,

I love the book restart I read in my class. It is one of my favorite books and can you make a movie? I have 2 questions. My first question is who is your favorite character? My is Mr Solway. My last question is what is your favorite book. do you have any new books

Love Cooper

Hi, Cooper,

Thanks for posting. I'm glad RESTART made a hit with you. I hope you'll read many more of my books.

My fav. character has always been Chase himself, with Brendan running a close second. I honestly have no favorites among my books. Having said that, I admit to being very proud of my 100th book, THE FORT, and of the MASTERMINDS trilogy. But I really do like all my work. And there's always a new book, Cooper. It's called SLEEPLESS, and it's coming out early in July.

Thanks again, -----Gordon Korman-----

Hi, Oakley,

Thanks for posting. Can I make a RESTART movie? In a word, no. Authors write books, and film companies make movies. Someone from a film company has to read the book and decide it would make a great movie Then they buy the film rights, write a script, cast the movie, and it comes out in a theatre, or on TV, to make you (and me!) happy.

That's the way it works. Let's keep a good thought, and maybe it will happen. -----Gordon Korman-----

Dear Mr. Korman, My name is Jack and I am 8 years old. I recently read your book, Snoop. It was so good and I loved it. I didn't want to put it down. At the end, when the tiger was there, it was so exciting. I just wanted to let you know how much I loved your book and I can't wait to read more of your books!

P.S. My grown-up helped me with this :)

Hi, Jack Leonard,

Thanks for posting. I'm pleased to hear that SNOOP made such a big hit with you. I've written a lot of books, so I hope you'll go to THE BOOKS section of this website and take your pick. There will soon be 108 titles to choose from!

Thanks again, Jack. -----Gordon Korman-----
