At one point he was really rude to some kids, refusing to sign their old books and said they had to buy his new book and he would only sign that one.

I have never heard of Gordon Korman though.<br />Based on what you've shared I am now curious about him and his stories, especially "Ungifted" as I was a "gifted" student as <br />well (unfortunately that didn't carry into adulthood, LOL)!<br />Doreen Vasquezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17229635212973145932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667359180148612833.post-84253687795450317072012-10-16T09:39:29.436-07:002012-10-16T09:39:29.436-07:00I've been blessed to meet great authors twice:...I've been blessed to meet great authors twice: Eve Bunting when I was in elementary school and Ray Bradbury (one of my personal favorites) in high school. Both times were very exciting.
