Dear Mr. Gordon Korman,

Hi! My name is Maggie from CVES in San Diego, California. In Mrs. Jones class I am also a fifth grader, and we read your book Restart. My class read the book as a novel study and we loved it. Last year in fourth grade I read your book The Unteachables and did a presentation on it too. (It was really good) We just finished reading Restart as a class and we read it in chunks, I loved that each chapter had the different characters’ perspectives.

My favorite part in the entire book was when Mr. Solway came into the courtroom looking really good in a suit and of course came with his walker. I also like this part a lot because Mr. Solway covers up for Chase by saying that he lended the Medal of Honor to him and that got the judge to say “Case closed”. 

My favorite character has to be Shoshanna because I love her attitude so much and it reminds me of myself. I also love her because she trusted Chase faster than I expected but I like it like that because I wasn’t expecting it.

Thank you so much for writing this book. I really enjoyed reading it with my class. I love your writing and hope you continue to write.

                                                   Sincerely,

Maggie
