Dear Mt. Pinkwater,
My son who enjoyed your books so much when he was in middle school is now several years into college. He’s reading heavy books by Russian authors. Consequently, he’s always depressed. I’ve slipped a copy of one of your collections of stories into his rucksack the last time he was home. So far he hasn’t said anything, but I’m hopeful he’ll read them again.
Best Fishes,
Rboin
