I love getting mail from readers. ❤️ This is an excerpt of a lovely letter from a student who read DOGTOWN.

Happy second birthday to THE TENTH MISTAKE OF HANK HOOPERMAN!
In many ways, this book was inspired by childhood memories of my big brother. It's deeply personal to me, and it means all the more that it has resonated with so many of you.
Thank you for reading and sharing Hank and Boo's story. 💙
Dear teachers and librarians, I'm sending you all a big hug as you wrap up the school year.
I hope you have a relaxing, joyful summer full of special memories. ❤️
I can't wait to share more about my next book, LAST NIGHT AT THE CARNIVAL GRAVEYARD.
Coming spring 2027.

I had a wonderful time making a surprise virtual appearance at a book club that was reading DOGTOWN!
Absolutely love their "Book Club Bag" idea, full of thoughtful questions and treats.
Thanks for having me, Lisa and readers.

I love this story about pitcher Angel Cervantes' good luck charm, Jerry the Dinosaur.
It reminds me of Nicholas and his toy dinosaur from my picture book DAD AND THE DINOSAUR, illustrated by @dansantat.bsky.social.
It's a great read for Father's Day this weekend!

Happy 6th birthday to ORPHAN ELEVEN! 🎪🐘
This book came out in May 2020. I missed gathering with readers, but I was so excited to share Lucy's story.
This book is a gift from eleven-year-old me to eleven-year-old you. I hope you get the chance to read it.

I am overjoyed to share that THE TENTH MISTAKE OF HANK HOOPERMAN has won North Dakota's 2026 Flicker Tale Award!
Thank you to the Committee for including Hank's story, and to every teacher, librarian, and student who shared, read, or voted. I am one lucky author.

Good-luck rituals may improve performance because they increase a person’s sense of self-efficacy — or their confidence in their ability.
