A Massive Merci to Marvelous Montana

Way back in May of 2025, we received an envelope from the lovely Kathy Slack’s equally lovely 2nd grade class. The envelope was bursting at the seams with letters and drawings from students who had much to say about Johannes, Helene and the whole gang. Nearly every letter contained a drawing, proving that these students at St. Andrew in Montana have an aptitude for the arts and a deep understanding of the book. Read through them for yourself and find out! 

We are so grateful these students took the time to not only read the book, but share their thoughts and creative musings with us. Thank you, St. Andrew Catholic School! 

Do you also have thoughts on the book? Or an affinity for drawing? Or just a passion for sending mail to your favorite authors? To write to Dave Eggers, mail your letter to 849 Valencia Street, San Francisco, CA 94110, and get a letter back in return!
