IF YOU LIKED FORGET ME NOT

Since the publication of Forget me not, I’ve had so many parents, teachers, and kids write to me asking for recommendations of what to read next. So many, in fact, that I thought it would be helpful to post them here for everyone to enjoy.

Ellie Terry answered Andy's question: Hi!! Im Andy and I was wondering if there is or will be another book on forget me not? If not, what books have you written that you recommend the most. Hi Andy, thanks for the question. As of now, there isn't a sequel planned for Forget Me Not, but I am busy working on future books!

Ellie’s Quotes

“If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.”
― Albert Einstein

“I hate when people ask what a book is about. People who read for plot, people who suck out the story like the cream filling in an Oreo, should stick to comic strips and soap operas. . . . Every book worth a damn is about emotions and love and death and pain. It's about words. It's about a man dealing with life. Okay?”
― J.R. Moehringer
