Dear Sara Pennypacker,
I LOVE your Pax books. I read both Pax books, and they're amazing. Some day, I’d like to be an author like you. I recently finished Pax Journey Home and I felt lots of emotions. My favourite part was when Pax gave his daughter, Sliver, to Peter. I also was wondering why Peter didn’t want to live with Vola at the start of the book.
A moment that stood out to me was when Peter read that letter from his dad’s friend, and Peter finally understood the real reason why his dad had passed away. It stood out to me because I was wondering that too. When Pax saw Peter, I liked how he recognized Peter, quote, “Pax recognized his boy. Even though Peter’s voice was deeper and his frame was taller, even after a year, he knew him.”, and I love the way you separate chapters for Pax and Peter.
I have lots of questions! I’m a curious person. First question, are you going to make another Pax book? Maybe this time, on Pax’s daughter, Sliver? I really hope you do. Your books are SO good!
Do you have a pet? Maybe a dog? I LOVE dogs! I have a dog. His name is Fuzzy, he’s 5 years old right now, and he's super cute!
Also, in the book, why did you write that Peter’s parents passed away? That part made me feel lucky that my parents are still there. Did you write that to give Peter more of a backstory?
A connection I have is that there is a fox in my neighborhood that just wanders around. I’m pretty sure he has a name, I just forget what it is.
I hope you have a good rest of your day,
Sincerely,
Esmé Mactaggart
P.S Please tell Jon Klassen that I love his pictures. They're so cute! |

I love your Clementine books. I will be surprised if you write an eighth book. Can you tell me what month and day is National Pecan Day? I asked my mom if we could celebrate this year. |

Dear Ms. Pennypacker,
Congratulations! Your book Leeva at Last is nominated to be read for the annual Iris Award! The Iris Award is an annual event in which International Schools students across Europe vote for their favourite book in several categories. The Iris Award is paired with the Book Bowl, which is a reading event where the students compete against each other by reading twelve pre-selected books, answering questions and completing activities about these books. Librarians around Europe carefully select books they think would be exciting and memorable to read, and your book made the list! We are reaching out to let you know about this wonderful opportunity and to gauge your interest in participating in an author visit.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards,

My favorite books in the world are the Pax series. They really have helped me learn so much, and reading them made me feel so many emotions and even made me tear up and I had to get a tissue. I love the characters and I am even wanting a pet fox now. Thank you for inspiring me.
p.s. Please come out with another book to the series. |

My husband and I loved the book Pax, but were wondering what war is this referring to, and in what country? |

Hi Sara,
We really love reading the Clementine books. We have read them many times over and it is something to share together as father and daughter while learning about emotions and relationships. We hope one day you could even write another one, or at least reveal the name of Cabbage, I mean Spinach, I mean Brocolili. Thanks for all memories.

Hi Sara, I am a second grade teacher and my students have written you a letter. I was hoping that I could get a mailing address to send it to. They have an important question to ask about your Clementine books. Please let me know where they can send their letter.
Thank you,
Shelley Michaud |

Dear Sara Pennypacker,
My name is Ellie Kathleen Exner. I am eleven years old, and I live in Columbus Ohio. You are my favorite author.
I’ve never really had a favorite author before, but one day I read your book, “Leeva at Last,” and loved it. Soon after I read “Here in the Real World” and “Pax” and then one day, I sat back and said,
“Wow. She’s a really good author.”
I’m an author too. I love to write books. I’ve loved to since I was five. And now, I’ve written one called “Behind the Garage” based on true stories that’s forty chapters long. After I edit it a lot, I’m going to send it to a publisher. And I’ve written you to ask for advice on publishing a book.
Thank you for reading this letter. Keep writing great books. I love to read them.
Your fan,
Ellie Kathleen Exner
