Dear Helena Hi it is hannah and jess from Linchfield Primary School we have had an experience of an burglar on the night before my mums wedding!!

Hi Helena! I am so glad u sent me a message back i thought u wouldn't be able to write to me because u have got other people that is writing to u. Most of all i liked the book called Brody but the best book of all of them is Simone's letters. I can't wait to read the follow on book about sammie! Hey my sister has got an unusuel name called Cerys and it is welsh.

Hi Helena! it was so good meeting you at Kinsley. I thought it was very funny and i couldn\'t help it when i said "trotted". I hope u will be able to put my name in one of your books like u have done with Truley-Rose Hamill's name. When i was just born there was nobody called Jordan so i just thought u might want to put my name in one of your books too! Everyday Truley gose on about it so it draves me crazy. I hope u will be able to write back to me as soon as u can i am begging.

Hiya, just dropping a note to say how well-written I think your books are (I reviewed one of the After School Club books for Write Away). Keep up the excellent work, and I hope to see more brilliant things from you in the future ;-)

Thanks for getting back to me. Can I ask you a question? Well my mum says that a helper writes on the guest book for you.It's probably cause your busy or something. Do they? I'm halfway through "starring Sammie". It's really good so far so I decided to get "starring Alex". I haven't read much of it because I've been busy with homework. So far, so good. Please return to me and answer my questions.( it's realy cool writing to an author.) Lizzie.

Hello Helena! I am form Austria so please understand that I am not very good at English. I read "getting rid of Karenna" in school and now I do a presentation. Would you be so kind and ask a few questions? It would be really nice. I have to talk about the questions with my friends who do the presentation with me. If you like so, I will send you the questions in a few days. Thank you very much Laura
