Subject: Your stories are Great!

Dear Alex;

My name is Rachelle Taylor. I am going to be 4 on Monday, Feburary the 24th. My mommy and I read your stories about Max together.

We love your stories, and I get to use the clicker. I love all of the stories.

We just finished reading Max and the Magic Carpet. Does Max ever get back to his tree, or is he lost?

I get books from the library, and like to have stories read to me.

Good bye,
Rachelle Taylor

Hi, Alex

I really liked your story. I think Max and Marty should travel around Australia and have different adventures in each state. He needs to come to the West to get some sun and go for a swim.

Please write back.

Dear Alex:

I liked your story. I hope you have a good time.

My name is Everett SweEt. I live at 1720 Canova Dr., Boise, Idaho, in the USA. I am 6 years old and I go to kindergarten. I have one little brother whose name is IaN and a mom and a dad. I like riding my bike, especially with the seat high, and I also like to bounce on my pogo stick.

My uncle put a picture of me on the web @ www.goinghome.com I'm the blond headed guy standing in front of Mom and Dad. Everybody else are relatives. Do you have a picture I can see of you?

I'll look at more of your stories later.

My Grandma and Granddad just left this week for a six-week visit to Austrailia. Maybe they will see you there. I'll have my dad send a copy to Granddad, so if he's checking his email, he'll know we're talking.

I had my dad type some of this but I told him what to say. Thanks for the story,

Love,
EVERETT swEET

Hi Alex

I've always wanted to go to Australia. I live in Canada. Have you seen any Kangaroos or Koala bears in the wild in Australia? My mom and dad went to Australia in 1995. They loved it!!!

I think your stories are very good. I just did a project on kangaroos and got 24/24. I also want to get a doll from Australia from the global friends doll club.

Do you like making stories.

You can e-mail me a rfordham@odyssey.on.ca if you like.

My name is Danielle. I am 8.

bye for now

Alex,

I liked your site because I lived for a year in Australia with my parents and my little sister, who was born there. If you want to write a story about Max travelling around the World, I can give you some ideas about Mexico that may help you
