Dear Mr. Pinkwater:

As a boy, I read many of your books and was particularly taken by Alan Mendelson, Boy From Mars. I was wondering if there was ever any effort to have the book made into a movie.

Thank you for inspiring me. I hope to read your stories to my own children someday.

Sincerley,

Edward P. Sarich

From time to time people have approached me about a film version of Alan Mendelsohn, and even paid money for an option to develop it--nothing ever came of it.
