Author Guest Post! - Chris Rylander


Author Guest Post!

Welcome Chris Rylander, author of the Fourth Stall trilogy, published by Walden Pond Press.
I've been a huge fan since book one. Hilarious, funny and clever, these books are not just for middle graders!

Chris is kind enough to interview Staples, the bully from the original The Fourth Stall book.  Staples is back in book three, with a very mysterious agenda.
Chris, thank you for being so brave and interviewing Staples for us!
