<p>I have gotten lots of letters lately about school visits.  I love visiting schools.  It is one of the best parts of being an author!  If you are interested in having me come to your school, just talk to your media specialist and she can contact me.  She can also find information about school visits on my blog and on my website.</p>
<p>I hope I get to visit your school sometime soon!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi Everybody,</p>
<p>Thanks to all of you who have written lately.  Epecially Lauren, Graci, Ali, and Alyssa.  Thanks for being such amazing fans!  Some of you wanted to know what book was right before <em>Oh Boy, Mallory</em> and the answer is <em>Mallory&#8217;s Super Sleepover</em>.  For all of you who have been to sleepovers, I think you might be able to relate to what happens to Mallory when she has a super sleepover to celebrate her 10th birthday. I don&#8217;t want to give anything away, so all I will say is that parts of it are super and parts of it are not.  I hope you&#8217;ll read it and let me know what you think!</p>
<p>Talk to you soon!</p>
