hello Mrs.Hopkins,
I'm a big fan of your books and i have a power point presentation about my favorite author due next week for my English class. I'm making it about your life and your books and i was wondering if you knew anywhere i could get your full biography,most websites i've seen already only have about one paragraph worth of information.

oh heavens no so your absolutely right i would never say that she made good decisions for her babies I'm just saying that she was  sick in the head with mental problems and we should be proud of her of getting the help she needed to become better mom

I really enjoyed you book tricks just as i do all of your books however one part in particular upset me and that was the reference to Britney spears parenting skills i thought it was quite harsh and uncalled for please try and remember that she had just delivered her second baby her husband was a complete wast of space and she couldn't breath without a camera in her face so she went a Lil off the deep end. I think we as a society especially women should learn not to judge each other for our faults and mistakes but to be there to help each other and we should all be proud when someone works hard to turn their life around for the better. sorry for my rant I'll get off my soap box now i can't wait for your next book!!
