I am a homeschool mom of 5 children ages 6-14.\u00a0 I just wanted to write you to tell you a little story that I think you may appreciate.\u00a0 My daughter Briana (age 14) is your biggest fan!\u00a0 She has read both of your series, Dragons in Our Midst and, the Oracles of Fire (very quickly I may add). Briana has gotten all of her friends hooked on both series as well as her 11 year old brother.<\/p>\n
She has been UNpatiently\u00a0 waiting for your Bones \u00a0book for what seems like forever.\u00a0 We had heard (I\u2019m not sure by who, or where) that It was to be out by Feb.\u00a0 09, so of course, whenever we were in the area of the Christian book store (Florence, KY), we would take a peek to see if it was there.\u00a0 Eventually, someone there told us, not feb. but by the end of March it would be in.\u00a0 It was nearing the end of March when we stopped in again.\u00a0 This time when we asked for your book, the nice young man that was helping me said \u201cThe author of that book is coming in for a book signing sometime soon.\u00a0 Would you like me to go check when that will be happening?\u201d<\/p>\n
Well, my daughter, who is the quietest little thing ever, just about went crazy at the thought of meeting you and getting her books signed by you.\u00a0 The thing that makes this story so interesting is that in November, my daughter was in a piano recital, and for the pamphlet that told a little bit about each pianist, the children had to answer the question \u201c If you could have anybody in the whole world over for Christmas, who would it be?\u201d\u00a0 When all the other children answered, the president, famous movie stars, kings and queens, Briana\u2019s response was, \u201cBryan Davis, the author of my favorite books.\u201d\u00a0 Now, the sad part of the story.\u00a0 When the young man returned from checking out when you\u2019d be in the store, he said, \u201cyou\u2019re going to hate me!!! ( He said this do to our over \u2013the- top excitement he experienced when he told us you were coming)\u00a0 Mr. Davis was just here last Wed. \u2026You hate me don\u2019t you!\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0You were there just 4 days earlier!!!\u00a0 Well, My daughter and I left the bookstore without your book \u2013 it hadn\u2019t come in yet- and devastated at the thought of missing you by only 4 days.<\/p>\n
I just thought that you may like to know just how much you are thought of by this young reader.\u00a0 I know that if someone mentioned my name as the one person that they wanted to meet more than anything, I would be thrilled.\u00a0 Keep the books coming and, anytime that you are in the Northern Kentucky area, please e-mail me if at all possible.\u00a0 We will keep checking with our local bookstore and on your website also.\u00a0 I hope this letter uplift you and \u00a0keep you using your God-given talent to reach out to people of all ages.<\/p>\n
