big fans
My girls are huge fans as well a lot of students at Canterbury school, we have a winter carnival coming up and was wondering if you could send a signed copy of one of your books so we could auction off for the school.
Canterbury School PTO
All students are honored at Canterbury School!
January 1, 2008
Dear Business Partner,
The parents of children who attend Canterbury Elementary School (on Berkshire Drive in Crystal Lake) are volunteering their time and efforts to obtain donations for our annual Winter Carnival raffle and silent auction to be held on Saturday, February 23rd, 2008.
All proceeds of this raffle and auction will be used to enrich the educational environment of the students in kindergarten through fifth grade at Canterbury, many of the same children whose parents patronize your business. The PTO (Parent- Teacher Organization) has used its funds to improve the school library, help students attend cultural arts and science events, support the school play and many other activities. Canterbury students come from Crystal Lake, Cary and Lake in the Hills.
These children are our future. Your support will help us provide these students with the quality of education that we know our entire community wants for our children. If your business is willing to make a donation, you can call me and I will be happy to pick it up. Otherwise you may mail a donation to me at the following address:
Jill McHugh
PTO Carnival Fundraiser
Canterbury Elementary School
875 Canterbury Drive
Crystal Lake, IL 60014
When the donation has been received, you will receive a thank you letter for tax purposes. Please estimate the value of your donation so we can include that amount on your letter. For more information, please call me at (847)757-8000. Thanks in advance for your help and your support of our local schools.
Thank you,
Jill McHugh
PTO Representative

Christmas ornament?
Hello -
My boys are HUGE Walter fans. They have introduced him to their classmates and their very cool teachers read the books out loud and squeeze our Walter doll for sound effects! I have looked for and cannot find a Walter Christmas ornament. This is a must-have for us and I will pay an artist to paint one as a last resort but I'm hoping you would authorize the production of an "official" Walter ornament. If one becomes available please let me know!

The Extraterrestrial
Mr. Kotzwinkle, ET has always been my favorite movie and I have had the sequel for it in my head now for about 24 years. I know this is extremely presumptious of me, but now that I am retired I have the time to pursue writing the book and then hopefully having it made into a movie. I am now 59 years old and if I don't get started soon it might be to late. I am sure I need your permission to legally write a sequal to your original work and for the screen play as well for the movie, but I have no idea what the proper procedure is to even begin the process. I am extremely serious about this endevor. We all have our dreams, and this is mine. Please advise. Thank you. Sincerely, Karen Szachnitowski

Where's the spider?
Hi Mr. Kotzwinkle! My students and I have really enjoyed your books, and Walter! In the book WALTER THE FARTING DOG, we noticed a spider in each of the illustrations, except one. The illustration of Walter eating the box of fart-free Biskwee is the one in question. Is the spider in there and we're just missing it? Any help you could give us on this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much and thanks for your time!

A new Walter book
Everytime my 6 year old grandson and I get together, we read a Walter book. I am in NY and Will is in MA. This weekend we read the last Walter book. Will suggested that we should write one; so, we put our creative juices together and wrote and illustrated Walter Takes an Airplane Trip. What a wonderful, creative time this was together.

The Real Walter The Farting Dog.
Our dog Walter is a 14.5 yr old black lab, a retired therapy dog and a survivor of 4 cancers. He has always been an amazing farter but he hit a new farting 'high' on our last camping trip. We won't let the Gas out of the bag here but if you want to hear our story and use it, Walter would be honored. So funny and so true and all who know the 'Walter' books have begged me to send this. Hope to hear from these great authors.

Look Alike
My sister bought some books at an auction. We started putting away, and when I picked up a book entitled "A Game of Thirty" I turned it over and one the book cover there was a picture of you. I was stunned to find out that you and I have the same face, we both even have the two creases between your eyes. I showed it to my sister and he basically said,"What the hell????"
I told her every one has their double but they usually don't ever see the other person. Another funny part is that have written (but can't get information on who to contact)two childrens books. I also found out the I, like you was born in November. I think this is really interesting. I have read all your books so far, and that was even before I knew what you looked like. I really enjoyed you genius.

Rejected Book Report
My first grade son just had his book report on Trouble at the Yard Sale rejected by is teacher. She felt the book was inappropriate and is making him redo his book report. His last book report was on Captain Underpants and this was acceptable. So a couple of boys hypnotizing the principle so he strips down to his underware is appropriate but a story about a dog with gas that catches a bankrobber is not!? Can you please explain this? Is this censorship acceptable in first grade public school?

The Fart Fairy
Hello. My new book, The Fart Fairy, is due to be released in June. I would be happy to send you a galley if you would be interested in writing a review for the book. My first two fairy books have received numerous awards and I am looking forward to breaking into the world of controversy. So far, the word "fart" has caused mixed responses. I guess I will have to toughen up. http://bestfairybooks.com
