Well it's 2nd core History, and im done my Texas revolution project, so you know. It seems more and more that i come here i see thankyou posts to Mr.Card, so i guess ill have to add mine too. Two years ago in English our teacher gave our class an assignment to read books of certain genreas each semester. When we had to read "Classics"(thats right Mr.Card, at NewHope-Solebury MiddleSchool, you are considered Classic)I chose Enders Game(from the countless comments my friends game me). It was new, and i enjoyed it. I wasnt much of a reader at this time. Soon after i noticed Ender's Shadow in the Library and said "Hey its another Ender Book". The book was great, and the part that ammazed me was i enjoyed reading. Mr.Card your writing got me to "actual" start reading, of course the next books i would read after would be SOTH, And SOTB. I then tried rading Speaker, but i at such a young age i wasnt really interested. After then hearing of your release of SOTG, i made quick arrangments to see you in Philly. Mr.Card, you inspired me to read new books, authors too. Your writing is amazing(and you better keep writing *evil sneer*). In my room i have a trophy shelf, filled with little trophies i got from Little League Baseball, and basketball. But after finishing SOTG, i moved some of the trophies, and put SOTG right next to them. That shelf now holds those little things that show pride of my accomplishments, and one of them, is reading your books. I continue to read your books(prefably the shadow series). I must say, personally i like the stlye you use in the Shadow books, and SOTG was ammazing. Mr.Card, Merci.
Sincerely, Logan Cawley

Yo Lc nobodey else posted so i thought that i would say you were the first person to actually read Enders game of the many peeps i recomended it to.

I'm always happy when people give my books a chance. And when they still want to read my books even after meeting me.
I'm still trying to figure out what "SOTB" stands for. Especially if it was written by me. It's probably something painfully obvious, but the only thing that came to mind was "Son of the B----," and I know I didn't write anything with that title.

Well with that title you could go with something... The tale of Ender's dog, Betty, who gives birth to Fido. Ender was with Fido only a little while before pulled away to Battle School. The story em'bark's on the quest of Fido to overcome his tragedy of losing his best friend. (I had to put a pun in there.)

I laughed until I cried and soiled myself. My husband wanted to know what was so funny, so I explained SOTB to him. He appears not to have gotten it.
