I know someone famous!

I totally had English classes with Brandon Mull, author of Candyshop Wars and the Fablehaven series. He came trick or treating last Halloween to my house with his kids and I recognized him and said, "How do I know you?" He was probably thinking, "duh, I'm like a successful author", but he was so nice as we realized we had English together at the Y. 2 months later I see an article about the author of Fablehaven and there was his picture. I'm an idiot. So anyway, his aunt lives across the street and invited him to our ward book club (we were reading the Candyshop Wars), which he did come to last Tuesday and we were all able to visit with him and get our books signed. It is pretty cool to see an old starving student take off and do so well, and his success is well deserved, he is a pretty cool guy.

I'm glad you posted this because I couldn't remember what you had said these books were called. Now I can get them and read them with Kaden. :)
