We have ABE classes at our local treatment center twice a week. Yesterday, I had one of our instructors take two of the Junkyard Dan books to give to two of our very low level readers who are in there. She had the two of them sit across from each other and take turns reading them to each other. She said it was hysterical...the two of them sat and laughed, then called her over and said to her, "You're not going to believe what just happened in this book!" and proceeded to tell her. They were so excited about the book!

When it was break time, one of them came back from break early, immediately picked the book up and started reading - this from someone who hates to read!

So...when are you going write some more?

Elise, I totally get your purpose of putting out cool books for to help struggling readers learn to read, but your books are more than that! Your books are a self esteem tool, a career advancement tool, an SLD tool, a Drop out prevention tool, and an intervention to gangs. Your books are more than just fun...they are a life raft for an alarming portion of the at risk kids that I am so passionate about reaching!!!! Every YMCA, after school program and community program needs your books!

My students love your Junkyard Dan series of books, and the only thing that can top them are your workbooks for the series! I just want you to know that your books and workbooks have made my job a pleasure, and I hope you will continue to get out more Junkyard Dan books. Besides your books, there's really nothing out there that interests my students.

Thanks for getting these books out there. I wish you and Nox Press continued success.
