I’d love to have a channel to Dav Pilkey. I’m sure he’s doing fantastic and doesn’t need any sort of reinforcement. My kids are sitting on the couch re-reading Dog Man books, and giggling their heads off.
The neat thing about Dog Man is it is full of puns and pop culture references. When they first read them, they get a tiny fraction of those. My oldest is now 13 and has picked up on loads of word play and cultural references that he’s never understood previously. He’s probably older than the target demographic, but is loving them all the same.
I’m sure seeing his work bring all this joy to a couple of kids on the other side of the planet would make him beam with happiness. At least it would for me, even if I were a multi millionaire.

You can probably send something through his publisher? I reckon he’d be stoked to hear that.
I have nothing but respect for authors of children’s and YA books. Takes a special kind of genius. And yes, they must love children very much.
Since kids don’t usually write maybe you can , as magpie suggests, and drop the publisher a line.
