Dear Alex

This is Ann & Matthew from the Australian Koala Foundation in Brisbane. We don't have an email or internet linked up to our office yet but we're looking at all the koala web sites thanks to our special koala friend Michael Jackson at QUT. Of all the koala pages, yours is our absolute favourite - it's gorgeous and we especially love Max's smile!

Well done, Dudes.

I've been trying to think of some reason to develop my own family page, and now I have one... Thanks for the inspiration.

Look for my page at www.ozemail.com.au/~evanveen. It should be up and running by March.

Cheers

Dear Alex,

We liked your story. Maybe Max's next adventure could be learning how to swim? This is the first thing we ever did on the internet.

Thank you,
Rhiannon & Gwydion Angell

Subject: Great story!

Alex: I loved your story. It kept me interested and I'm a 41-year-old kid!
Further adventures for Max?
How about having him meet even more animals from Australia? Or you could have him get a sister or brother. Or you could have him try to find another home (with his family, of course.)

Keep writing and drawing!
What software did you use for the drawing?

Subject: Great Stories

Alex,

I am a teacher in Arizona, USA, and I am going to share your fine story with the teachers and children at my school. I would like them to learn to write great stories like you do.

As for another story. Maybe you could draw some pictures of yourself and tell about something you like to do. Our children love to write stories about the places they go and the fun things they discover.

Thanks for sharing your creative stories. If you want you can visit my school and see some of the projects our kids are doing. We would love to hear from you.

I really enjoyed your story about Max and Joey. I am nineteen years old and am a student at North Carolina Wesleyan. I am an Education major. I hope to one day teach kids about your age. I thought your story was really cool. It amazes me how children your age can be so... computer smart. I myself have a hard time with the computer. Congratulations on your book!

Sincerely,
Karen Catlett
