Great email from 12-year-old reader

Sam Bailey would like to share the following email with others because it touched him so much.
Millie Logan wrote, "Hello Sam, I am 12 years old and read your book. I told my brother about you and you were a huge inspiration to him. My brother Cameron is 17 and was in a surfboard accident. He was told he would never run or play football again. He was selected for the 1st squad and was the 2nd fastest runner at St Stanislaus College Bathurst and to be told that he would never run again and now he is in the 3rds and running again. Your book was amazing and I think you are incredible. I now look more at how lucky I am and not all the bad things about me, from Millie."
Sam says emails like this one from Millie are the reason he wrote "Head Over Heels", hoping to help others through their own challenges. "I just want to thank Millie for letting me know that it is making a difference and I would like to wish her and her brother all the best for their future. With an attitude like they have both shown they will no doubt achieve great things in their lives," he says.
