Welcome to the Guestbook!
I’m always eager to read your comments about my books and stories, so please feel free to pitch in. Here are a few things for you to know:
1) I answer the messages here personally.
2) No message shows up here until I actually answer it to prevent spam and other inappropriate postings. So there will sometimes be a delay before your message posts, especially if I am traveling.
3) Teachers, a gentle request: Please do not have multiple children send me variants of the same message. A group email is much easier to respond to and not such a drain on my time. My thanks in advance for being alert to this.

well that sucks that....but how much would it cost for you to travel to different schools cause in our afterschool program we have the funds for a guest speaker. I'm in the process of writing a proposal to our principal to have a guest speaker. Thank-you for your advice on how to start or write a book.
hey how did you come up with all of thoes books that you wrote
haha so i thought it was cool that you used chachater from your school and on your teacher fried my brains did you ever fry your kids brain lol and is that why you wrote that book
I love your book Jennifer Murdley's toad
I know my readling teacher is a vampire but i don't think she will tell me. What should I say to her? The book I read was "my teacher is an alien". My favorite character in that book is Peter. I appreciate the book.It is on my top 10 favorite book.
Well, The good news is at least you tried to get a movie for "My Teachers An Alien". My teacher Mrs.Fitch and my classmates and I were woundering if you could stop by our school River View Jounior High and tell us how you start a book or how to write a book....I'm also intrested in writing a book I have an idea I just don't know how to start the book.
im sorry i was talking about my teacher is an alien how did you come up with that book i thought it was pretty cool how made it up like that
Dear Bruce Coville,
I just read Amber Brown is tickled pink, and I want you to know that I am too! I think you and Elizabeth Levy really got it right, and besides, it was fun! (And I love that Justin's little baby sister is named Paula.) Once upon a time I worked at Syracuse Stage, for Bob Moss and Tim Bond, and I also worked at DeWitt's Barnes and Noble, when your daughter worked there, btw. I hope you, she and everyone you hold dear are well!

Hello, Bruce! I'm Allyson, the girl who gave you the drawings at your sole presentation at the Tucson Festival of Books. I know that I made it a few years back and it's not my best, but I was just wondering if you were going to put it under the fan art. Thanks so much for being there! And I agree with what you said-"This is what every children's author feels like about Harry Potter-NO!!! Why waswn't it me!!!!!!!!!" Haha!
Mr. Coville,
I met you in 1996 at an IRA convention. I told you before your presentation that The Foolish Giant was one of my favorite read alouds for my daughter and to my primary classes. Well, 16 years later I have a granddaughter who is 2 1/2 years old. I recently read her The Foolish Gian, wondering if the story might be a bit too scary. Well, it has now become her favorite book and I watch with joy my daughter now reading about Harry to her child. Thank you for a story that touches the heart and will live on from generation to generation.
