Samantha,
I agree with you! Life is so wonderful when you share it with someone you truly love!

Rolando,
Your topic is very intense. Is the book based on a particular war, or war in general? What do you think about the statement, “Ninguna guerra es necesaria”?

Ms. Navarro

Hi German,
This sounds like an action-packed book! Does it remind you of anything?

Ms. Navarro

Hi Alberto,
Wow! It’s amazing to think about what it would like to live on the moon! I really don’t think I would ever want to do that, but from what I hear it might actually be in our future. Would you want to live on the moon? Why or why not?

Hi Sofia,
I’m so happy for your friend who is continuing to develop his music career.

In your book does the character continue to communicate with the author who wrote to him?

Ms. N.

Hi Rolando,
I haven’t read this series of books, but you and some of your peers seem very interested in them. Were you the one who encouraged Eduardo, Miguel and German to read them?

I’m curious to know–who is your favorite character? I’d like to know about him/her.

Ms. N.

Hi Raul,
Does your book remind you of anything? Have you been around horses?

Ms. N.

Dear Samantha,
This is such an important topic! It is terrible that people put these labels on women and girls. Do you think boys and men experience these types of verbal attacks in the same way?

Ms. N.

Hi Alberto,
Did you read that horses are given drugs to go faster? I was surprised to read that, but I really shouldn’t be. It’s like athletes who takes performance enhancing drugs. Did you read that cars have “40 caballos de fuerza”? I have heard about “horsepower” before but never thought about it until I read your post. Is there an actual…[Read more]

I love pupusas!

Hi Rodolfo,
Why is the boy in your book responsible for finding food for his family?

Ms. N.

Sofia,
I love your story! I understand how you would have been frustrated by the student who always wanted to copy you. I don’t usually advocate lying, but I must say I like your clever solution! Good job!

Ms. Navarro

Hi Evelyn,
It must be special to use a dress that has been handed down in the family. How did the character in your book feel about having to use her aunt’s dress? My sister used our mother’s wedding dress as her own wedding dress. I thought that was pretty cool. If you were the character in the book, how would you feel?

Hi Heriberto,
War is such a powerful topic. I’d like to hear more about how religion is involved in the war that you are reading about.

Ms. Navarro

Hi Erika,
Your post reminded me of how people assume things about people that aren’t always true. Does this book and the connections you are making affect how you think about people?

Ms. Navarro

Hi Alberto,
Your post makes me want to watch the World Cup!

Hi Rolando,
What terrible accidents! Is Mack keeping up hope the way the person from the TV show did?

-Ms. Navarro

Hi Claudia,
The story about the man from the castle sounds very interesting. How is La Cruz Del Diablo similar?

-Ms. Navarro

Dear Jenifer,

Your book sounds very interesting! I’m very curious about why the neighbors had the baby, instead of the mother. Did the mother give her up for adoption, and later change her mind?

I look forward to your response!

Ms. Navarro
