Mr. Pinkwater,

I am a second grade teacher, who has recently been introduced to the INK DRINKER books by Eric Sanvoisin. I was especially intrigued by the author’s comment at the end of the book encouraging people to write to him to receive a straw. I thought this would make a great writing assignment for my students, and they would really love receiving something from an author. My problem is that I have been unsuccessful in finding an address for the author. I am hoping that you can help me in this regard. I would truly appreciate any help you can give. Thank you in advance.

Have you written to him in care of the publisher?
