The Treasure Trove

Here is another addition to the Letters from Students category. This one reads:

“Dear Nationwide Learning, Inc,

Thank you for publishing my book. My mom and dad loved it. They want me to wrap it and give it to my grandpa and grandma. I hope my grandpa and grandma love it.

I hope in the future your company will keep on publishing books for kids. I bet the kids will like writing and drawing books like I did.”

We know this student’s grandparents will love the book and of course we will keep on publishing books for kids! With feedback like this, it reminds us how special our program truly is to these kids.

Here is the 2nd addition to our Student Letter posts. This one comes from an elementary student in Florida.

Dear Publishers,

I am ever so pleased with my book. I just love that you made it a hard cover rather than a paperback. I will always treasure what you did, as so will my family, I hope you can continue to bring this kind of happiness to others for years to come.

P.S. Even my teacher loves my book

Another great letter from a student, I will continue to post these periodically, so be on the lookout.

Here is the text from a letter we received from a student that published a book with us…priceless!

Dear Nationwide Learning, Inc.,

Thank you for publishing my book poems for the Fireside. I am glad to have all of my hard work sent to such a trusted and renown company. I never thought that someday I would have a published book let alone one before I turned twelve! I wonder if any other publishing company would be courteous and kind enough to publish such a book as mine. I don’t even know if I would want any other company publishing my book. I will tell every aspiring author about your wonderful services. Thank you again for publishing my book.

What a sweet kid! I left the name out for privacy reasons of course. I’ll be posting more letters from students, so subscribe to this feed, there is definitely more to come.
