Dear Ken Catran,

My name is Hannah Hansen and I go to Parkvale School. In our class we have just finished reading your amazing book, Dead Harry. I really enjoyed it because Dead Harry is really interesting and at the end of each chapter I really want to read on. I am so happy that you wrote that book and I think that it is a big hit for me. I liked how in some parts I feel a little bit freaked out like I really don’t want that happening to me but after awhile, I got used to it. I really like that book. Thanks for writing it. By the way, in our class, we got into groups and we all got to make trailers. I was in a group with Lily, Teva, Zeb and I. Here is a link to the website which has our trailers.

My favourite characters in the book are Elias Milton and Anna. I like Elias Milton because of all the things that he was teaching Harry are kinda gross but in a way, funny. I like Anna because she sounds like an awesome girl and she is really fast. I can relate to Anna in some ways because at home mum calls me a geek because I am always in my bedroom and doing things on my computer.

My favourite part in that story is where they are locked in the cupboard and that are trying to escape but they can’t because there is a fire outside the door and gas bottles. I like that part because it is kind of freaky. At that part of the story, it is like something good or something bad is about to happen.

To end my letter, I would just like to say a big thank-you for writing this amazing book and being such an awesome author. I loved your book Dead Harry and am hoping that I will get to read one of your other entertaining books.

Yours sincerely,

Hannah Hansen
