Congrats on the publication of your book. My son is one of the firefighters you interviewed.
Hope you’ll understand that I’m going to wait until he’s safely in grad school to read it.

watched your interview with Mexican/American former Marine- thanks for telling an important part of this story. I’m
furious that these young people have been sent to the streets of an American city, but I know who they are. They sat in my classroom last year- many 1st gen. choose military service.

Yes! 400 or so in Derry, NH today.

Please rest. We need you.

Yeah, it’s the one time a 99 is an F!

Please don’t let up! These arrests haunt me—they are so clearly targeting New England and our many colleges and universities.

Amy- I’m so sorry to hear this. You are writing books that kids need. Met you at NCTE/ Boston and have been passing your books to students ever since.

Shocking is the word.

Thanks for coming out to listen! We need our reps to hear our many concerns

Thank you-did not know and will use!

Thank you- please continue to do all you can. It was a disgraceful display- one among many.

Don’t know Lair of Dreams, but all of the others have been hits with 8th and 9th graders. Great choices!

Side benefit of exploitative babysitting ($1.00 an hour in 1979) — all the books- The Joy of Sex, Portnoy’s Complaint, The Thornbirds

Thanks for covering this story.

Many, many happy memories- but one not mentioned so far- Ronia the Robber’s Daughter by Astrid Lindgren. Particularly great in a snowy winter

Does anybody know if you actually need an Amazon account to borrow books from the public library and read on Kindle?

Rebel Cinderella by Adam Hochschild- a true tale of the Gilded Age (for the very few) and poverty and exploitation (for the many)

I don’t think he can be if we are not in the ICJ. Don’t think his plan will be landing anywhere that is.

I passed along to him- thanks for your attention to this issue.
