| Letter from Booker T. Worm |
When we last wrote we were on our way to the White House for the Opening Ceremony of the National Book Festival. As promised, we brought along your letters to the First Lady and delivered them to her Deputy Press Secretary. We heard from over 1,500 of you! What fun it was to read what you had to say.
So much has been going on recently. Everyone is rushing around getting ready for Halloween. We all love dressing up and trick or treating --- just like you. The only candy we do not like is Gummy Worms. I am sure you can understand why! See my selection of costumes is on the Halloween Books page.
By the way if you cannot see our snazzy new newsletter in color, complete with pictures of book covers, go to the link at the bottom of my letter to read our newsletter online. For kids on AOL with Kids Only accounts, we cannot send you newsletters with graphics, so this link is your ticket to see the pictures that we have added.
And without further ado...our lineup for the week...
