Wow! I just did a workshop in Boyds Mill, PA. (close to where they make HIghlights Magazine) and I've never seen trees so beautiful. It was like God spilled a paint set on the trees. Reds, Yellows, Oranges, Purples, Browns, and Greens-it was amazing. I even got to go for some walks in the woods. Imagine yourself totally alone in the woods-it's peaceful and just a tiny bit scary-in fact, I wouldn't recommend it for a kid.
Who knows what creatures lurk in those woods?
Perhaps a wolfman or maybe even a vampire teacher!!
Seriously, Vishi I'd love for Canadian kids to enter the postcard contest. Elizabeth, I hope your class enters too. You could win a whole bunch of books, but just for entering you get at least one book! Kevin!! it was great to hear from you again. I hope third grade is going well. (Did I ever tell you that I got in trouble alot for talking in third grade? I thought my teacher was so mean.)
Ann and Harley, I love writing because you can make anything happen in a book-crazy things-ANYTHING! Dalisha, I'm so glad you like my books. You and Finnegan might like my new book for Christmas. It's called Mrs. Jeepers Creepy Christmas and it should be in your next Lucky book order form. Do you get those from school? Erica, I hope you enjoyed Angels Don't Know Karate. I really liked the ending of that book. Breidget, keep up the great reading! Maud, thanks for the fun idea. Centaurs would be cool to write about.
Jackie, check out this link to find out more about me. http://debbiedadey.com/Swamp/BookReport.php.
Talk to you next week. Meanwhile stay cool and try not to get in trouble for talking in class! Good luck, Debbie

In case you're wondering, Eddie did find the saber tooth tiger in the book I just finished. Today, I'm brainstorming ideas for a new book. I think it will be a lot of fun-in fact, I think it will be SUPER!
Diana, I have two brothers too. My daughter has two brothers too. My niece has two brothers too! My older brother is Frank and my younger brother is David. I'm sorry that my webmaster doesn't allow addresses on the website (it's a kid's safety thing-don't ever give your address over the Internet because there are weird people in this world. Everything that comes to me is checked my my webmaster. Thanks webmaster! But you and Derek can write me in care of Scholastic 557 Broadway New York, New York 10012. (That way, I can send you an autograph too.) In fact, I was just in New York city yesterday. I did a little shopping, met my editor and agent for lunch, and visited the Scholastic offices. I live much closer to NYC now so I plan to visit more often. I took the train in and I even rode the subway.
Brittany and Haleight Michelle, you can find out facts about me by clicking on this: http://debbiedadey.com/Swamp/BookReport.php
Hunter, I hope you liked Triplet Trouble and the Cookie Contest. You are so smart to figure out the name of the city was Oakridge. Marcia and I never really said, but you were a great detective!
Greetings to Mrs. Lichman's first grade. To answer your questions, my birthday is May 18th and my favorite color is blue. Even my office is painted blue right now. I'm looking forward to visiting your school in October. I hope you'll enter my postcard contest at http://www.debbiedadey.com/Bridgett/PostcardContest.php. You'll get a free autographed book and you could win a set of books!
Jessica, yes I have been on a few book tours before. The longest I was ever away from home for a book tour was three weeks. It was too long to be away from my family. Please tell your brother I said hello. Hey Kendall, you sound like a fantastic reader! Keep rocking and reading! And lastly, hello to my sweet wonderful good-looking very talented great soccer playing daughter Becky.

Welcome to another September. I hope your first days of school were
totally awesome. Actually my two younger kids don't start until tomorrow. One
is excited and one is ready for summer to go on and on. LIke all good things,
summer is coming to an end. Let's make this a great new school year!
Catherine, I like Liza too. I try to be more like her. Sometimes I'm a
bit of a stinkpot like Eddie.
Derek, I think it's cool that your teacher was
one of my students. Did she say if I was mean or nice as a librarian? Bo, you
keep rocking and reading!
Stay cool and don't forget to check out ,

This question looms over our heads:
Will the first day of school be a horror or
a hurrah?
Kevin!!, I hope it's great for you and everyone who's reading this.
I only like horror when it's not real! Leilani, do I know your grandmother? If so, she's a great lady
(Linda).
Stephanie, the Bailey City Monsters series is all done, but Marcia
Jones and I are talking about starting a new series. It's pretty exciting so I
can't wait to see what happens. Hurrah to Vanessa and Selena, you guys sound
like fabulous readers.
Brenton from OZ, I don't know how to write a movie
(that's why it's taking me so long). I'm learning as I'm going. Jordan from Mrs. Relyea's class, thanks for writing in. I mailed some
books to your class today. Because I just moved, most of my books are still in
boxes in my basement. But I was able to find some to send your way.
You all could win lots of books for your class.
Brittany, I hope you'll try it too. If you'd
like to win books, try out our Bridgett Butt Postcard Contest. The more the merrier! Put your school on the MAP !
Take care,
Debbie
