Subject: Glad to find You

Dear Alex.

We were so excited to find your sight on the Web. We are Kindergarten Kids from Newport News, Virginia, USA. We go to a Math Science Technology Magnet School called Newsome Park. We are just learning about the internet and Think that it is so cool that you have put your stories on here for us to read.

We have bookmarked this page and will be back to read more!!

We'll send you ideas about stories - How about a visit to the US to see Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia. It is really near us and we can research for you.

Write back soon,
The 19 Kids from room 36 at Newsome Park

Hi, Alex!

I love your stories and I can't wait to show them to my little girl, Emma (18 months) and her cousin Ellen (25 months). Ellen's Daddy is from Melbourne (but now living in Minnesota, USA). His name is Alex, too.
Keep writing your wonderful stories!

Best regards- Karen

Hiya Alex and Dad,

This is the second time that I am sending an email. I check up on your page occassionally.

The stories are great, and you are quite a talented artist for your age Alex, in fact you can probably draw better than me.

One of the things I am very impressed by, and this is where your father comes into the picture is the level of response you give to people who write in, though I presume that that will get increasingly difficult as it becomes more and more popular. Congratulations on the success that you have had so far, particularly with the launching of the t-shirt and of Alex's Sribbles. That is a great idea and a great investment for Alex when he gets older.

This really has the potential to grow, particularly if you can capture the global arena. I think it would be great if you could get into the media, general as well as computer, all over the world. In fact it truly makes me proud to be Australian.

Alex you are being a great ambassador for the country, and, most importantly, bringing the plight of Koala's in Australia to people's awareness. (I love reading the responses as well)

Fantastic
Regards

Marcel

Alex,

My name is MacKenzie. I am 4 years old. I stayed home from pre-school today because I have the flu. I am feeling better now so my mom thought it would be fun to play some games on the computer. She really liked your stories because they gave me good practice with my "point and click" skills. I liked them because I liked Max. He looks like a cool Koala. Please write more.

P.S. My mummy typed this for me. .

Dear Alex,

Hi we loved your story!! We think it was great! We are 2 primary school girls and we live in Melbourne Australia. Where do you live? We think that you were very, very clever to be able to create your own web page. We certainly couldn't!!!!! Did you have lot's of help? A good idea for another Max story is getting lost in the city.

Good Luck!!
Stephanie Mawson and Amy Huva.
