Dear Mary Cunningham,

I’m very sorry I couldn’t get this message to you sooner. I was so caught up in my thoughts about the book “The Curse of the Bayou” and it’s ending. I was so very intrigued by the books end. For at least a couple days I was lost in my own little world thinking about it. I told almost everyone in my class about my thoughts on the end. Two of my thoughts were ” OH MY GOSH!!!, YOU GUYS HAVE TO READ “CURSE OF THE BAYOU” BY MRS. CUNNINGHAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”  Also my other one is “You have to read the series of Cynthia’s Attic, it’s AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you soooooooooo much for sharing your gift!      Your Fan,    Aubree

I love your books! I am already on book 3#. My favorite book is 1#The Missing Locket. My favorite part is when Cynthia and Gus try to make Louis’s father laugh.It is so funny! I would like to know if you have a bell shaped locket and what is book # 4 called? Are you already done with it? Please, please write back soon. Your eager book reader, Morgan

P.S. I live in Corydon, Indiana. I would rate your books 5 star. Please send me some writing tips because I want to be an author.

Dear Mary Cunningham,

I’ve been listening to Mrs. Smith read your 1st book. We’re not done yet but I love them so much and I feel like I am really there. I was just wondering what your inspiration was to start writing Cynthia’s Attic? What is your favorite book you have written so far? Is there really a locket? Did the locket really go missing? From Karson, a big fan

Dear Mrs.Cunningham,

I love your first book Cynthia’s Attic the Missing Locket. Mrs. Smith has been telling us about you and your other great books. Why do you enjoy writing? It is really neat how you include Corydon and some of its history. We are on chapter thirteen of the first book. I just L-O-V-E, love, love, love your first book. What is the question you get from kids? What inspires you to write? What is the best part about your writing. About how many e-mails do you get a year? I am so glad you are a writer.

Mrs. Smith showed us your 3rd book when you put her students in it. I have lived here for 5 years and have learned much history but your book has taught me more of it. When I first heard that your book was based on Corydon I was surprised. I had never heard of a book based on my favorite town. I rate your book all the stars in the sky. Sincerely, Alysa

Dear Mrs. Cunningham,

I really like Cynthia’s Attic. My favorite part of the book is when Gus bumps into her great grandmother Bess. Some kids and I in the class were wondering when you send us a copy of book 2 could you put Mrs. Smith’s great kids of class 06 and 07. Thank you, Jacob.

Dear Mrs. Cunningham,

I love when Mrs. Smith starts reading “Cynthia’s Attic.” I really like the part when Gus crashes into her great grandmother when she was riding her bike. She fell into the bushes, and when Gus looked to see who was in the bushes her face went pale. She started running like a mad man! That was so funny! Thank you a lot for getting us the second copy of “Cynthia’s Attic”. That will be awesome. Thanks a whole bunch, Michael.

I like the part about where Bess and Clara run into themselves. Also how many series did you write? One more thing do you like writing books? Cassidy Saulman

Have you written any other series or books? How many more have written? Thank you for letting us e-mail you. I’m having so much fun! Well hope to see you respond, bye!! Kelsey Smith
