Benjamin's MotherHello! My son has been ripping through your books (book number 9!) the past few months. He's so excited to share every chapter with us which has prompted some wonderfully thoughtful dinner discussions. He loves to read the books out loud to his 2 year old brother (who shares the same birthday!). Their birthday is on the 4th of July and I was hoping he could get a shout out and I'd print it out and tape it to the inside cover of your book as a surprise present. He'd be ecstatic! Thanks for considering!! We absolutely adore you!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BENJAMIN!
I'm so pleased that you've started reading and enjoying some of my books, and sharing them with the little brother who "stole" your birthday! Happy birthday to him too!
If it's MY books you like, you won't be running out of reading material any time soon! The next one is coming out in a few days -- it's called SLEEPLESS, and it's number 108 on my list of publications.
Again, thanks for your support for my work. And Happy Birthday, Benjamin! (Plus kid brother!)
Very best wishes, -----Gordon Korman-----
