3 QUESTIONS WITH JASON REYNOLDS!
1. What was your favorite childhood book?
I didn’t read any books. BUT, if I had to pick a book I remember being read to me, it’s Where the Wild Things Are. Because of the word mischievous.
2. What is your favorite scene you’ve ever written?
That’s a tough one! Maybe the first chapter of Ghost. At least that’s the answer I have at the moment.
3. What question do you wish more readers asked you?
During my Q&A’s, I tell the kids they can ask anything so I’m pretty sure I’ve gotten everything, from what kind of car do you drive to what mistakes have you made in your books you don’t tell anyone about. So I think I’m good on the question front.
