I like Your books very,very much. I read it five to six times. I think itΒ΄s a bit bad that you have to change the beginning of the 3. book. IΒ΄m a german and I think that I would like to read the english books too. My friends in school are often annoyed because I often recite something of the book.
Dear Sophia Bennet,
You came to my school very recently and I would like to thank you. Your speech was very inspiring and I think I might write my own book one day. Thank you for telling me her name is Edwina, not Theodora otherwise my friends would have been unbearable! Please keep writing, I am really enjoying your books.
Teddiexx
Hi Teddie
It was great to meet you. I hope you get to write your own book! Sorry for nearly stealing your name. I couldn’t have chosen Theodora, actually, because Ted hates her name and I think Theodora is a lovely name, so she wouldn’t have minded that! So glad you’re enjoying the books.

Hi Sophia,
I’m reading your book, now, and I must say that ‘The Look’ is a thrilling story about a tomboy who then becomes a supermodel. How did you come you come up with such a great story?
Please emeil me back,
Katie xoxo
Hi Katie
Thanks for your comment. If you want to know about how I came up with the idea, check out the page about The Look on this site. It’s under Books, and it explains all about it. s xxx
Can you please send me a profile picture of you on my email address and when you answer my message.
P.S. Can you please tell me if i have made any spelling mistakes, and I also would like to ask how old you are and how long it takes you to type the following ‘Supercalifrajalistic-expalidosious’ and ‘Scrummdiddilyupmtious ‘
Love Ashleigh π
You seem to be a really cute and nice person and I love the Threads trilogy. I’m going to think about my dream cast right now!
I went to Paris last year and Threads inspired me. I always want to travel while reading the books.

Hi Lilly
Thanks for your very kind comment. I’m so glad Threads has inspired you in your travels. I always hoped the series would remind readers what a great experience it can be to discover new places. Travel is one of my favourite hobbies, in fact.

Hi Sophia,
When is ‘The Look’ available in Germany?
I love you’re books about Nonie and now it would be great to read The Look !
Hi Clea. I think ‘The Look’ will be available later this year, or early next. It will definitely be coming out in Germany, but I don’t think it’s been translated yet. You can check with my German publishers, Carlsen. sophia xxx
i love your books except im an aussie so i don’t know anywhere I can get them π
awesome books though I love crow .
Hi Phillippa. They should all be available in Australia. If you ask your local library or bookshop, they should be able to get them for you. I think they’re published by Scholastic there. So glad you love them! S xxx
If your books are filmed will you cast in Germany because I would love to try if I could get a part.
My dad is welsh so I can speak English.
I hear your audiobooks every evening scince last christmas:D
Love
xxxxxCatie
Hi Caitlin. I don’t think we’ll be casting in Germany, but I’m thrilled to hear you enjoyed the books so much. Thanks for letting me know. xxx
Aw, thanks nonie wannabe π I enjoy it. If it ever is filmed (which i really hope it is) our cast so far would be really good. We will have to hurry with Tommy though, he is 21 now. Not long before he will be too old for Harry. Lol π thanks Heidi π
I love how we’re deciding the cast and auditions haven’t been announced. Dream cast? Someone for all the major roles. Go on, Heidi, you’re good at this!
I fully agree with you there Nonie wannabe, Loanna and Jennifer just work together so well. And yes he is, i was so happy when i first saw him on the BT adverts (he is the warewoolf now) I felt a bit like you really. I felt like i could beam for England. Everytime i watch it i always move closer to the screen. ( i know i’m wierd like that π ) Thanks Heidi π
If you had Joanna Lumley, you’d have to have Jennifer Saunders in there somewhere – like in AbFab. π I never realised it was DAVE THE LAUGH in the BT adverts, I feel like I’ve just been hit with a ton of bricks.
I agree about Jennifer Saunders, too. She’s a fabulous actress – definitely one of my favourites. She’d be brilliant and could choose her part! π
I know what you mean with Helena (she is, as i said before, my acting hero) and Joanna. Wow, are they really? (i am sitting at home beaming) That has just about made my morning. Good luck with the TV project. Good luck with writing your books. Heidi π
I think Jenny should be played by a teenage version of Christina Hendricks. Curvy, redhead – just a bit more awkward!
Yes, that would be perfect. A cross between her and a younger Linsay Lohan, maybe …. sophia xxx
Sophia, is there any news on auditions yet? Or have they already been cast?
No, nothing yet! Don’t worry – you haven’t missed anything. These TV option thingies can take a loooooong time! sophia xxx
Thank you for replying π I do have a few more in mind but I think my idea of what Harry looks like might be different to yours. The actor i have in mind is called Tommy Bastow, i have a huge crush on him and he was in angus thongs and perfect snogging playing Dave the Laugh. He’s on the BT adverts now. I did think of Helena Bonham Carter as Jennys mum (purly because she is my hero) but I think someone with more Jenny like features would be better. I’m looking forward to seeing the book in the future, and possibly a film as well Thanks again Heidi π
I’ll look out for Tommy Bastow. Funnily enough, one of the people from Angus, Thongs is involved with the Threads TV project, so it could almost, possibly happen! I’d cast HBC in anything. She’s brilliant. She’d be good as Nonie’s mum, too. (And I want Joanna Lumley for Granny. Who wouldn’t?) sophia xxx
I have all 3 of your threads books. It isn’t a trilogy is it? It would be a shame if it was, i really want to know more about Nonie and Crow and Edie and Jenny.
I must say I always imagine what a book would look like on screen when i read it (i would love to be a film producer or something (like Tim Burton) so i’m always writing scripts and writing down new ideas for films. New ways to do animations (i love doing animations as well, making things look 3D is always fun) and do different stunts. If Crows designs were bought to life on screen it would be PHENOMENAL!!!!! And I’m already thinking who i would love to be seen as the cast, i’m thinking possibly Clemence Poesy (Fleur Delacour in Harry Potter) as Svetlana. What do you think? Heidi π
Hi Heidi. I’m afraid it is just a trilogy for now! I might write another book in the series later, but it won’t be for a while. I agree that Threads could look fabulous onscreen. I like your idea of Clemence Poesy for Svetlana. Did you have any other actor/characters in mind? (Zac Effron is too old to play Joe Yule now, which is a shame.) sophia xxx
Hiya Sophia,
You are my absolute favourite author, ever! I first read Threads in 2009, on holiday and my mum kept telling me; “put it down, go in the pool or play ping pong!” but I just couldn’t!
Now 3 years later…I’ve re-read the book over and over and over again, it’s almost falling apart, that’s how good it is! It got me wondering if you had any other books so researched you and…WHERE HAVE I BEEN?! I was so excited when I saw you had wrote the sequel! Ordering them of Amazon asap!
I don’t really know what else to say other than you are my favourite author…carry on writing forever, please?!
Izzy. xo
P.S- Do you have any other books, other than the Threads series?
Hi Izzy. That’s so great to know! Thanks so much for writing to me. I hope you enjoy the other books in the Threads series and yes, there is one other: The Look. My new book, You Don’t Know Me, will be coming out next summer. sophia xxx
Would you want that your book is filmed I mean everything about it especially the clothes are Imagination it would kinda “distroy” the fantasy and glitter of your books.
Love Catie
xxx
Hi Catie. I know what you mean about destroying the fantasy, but even so, I’d love Threads to be filmed. It would be fascinating to see how someone else imagined my characters, and as I pictured it as a film in my head when I was writing, I’d be glad to see if it worked. There are plans for a TV series, but we’ll have to see if they work out … sophia xxx
Hey;), I’m Leony and I live in Germany. I LOVE your books and I love Noni. She is like me… wear
crazy clothes, collect books about fashion,… If it is a casting for this in the next time, please write it on your side.
XOXO
Hi Leony. It’s so exciting to have the last book in the Threads series out in Germany at the moment. I also love the sound of your fashion book collection. If there is a casting, I’ll be sure to put it on my site, don’t worry! sophia xxx
Hi,
when I read your books I absolutely was inspired and into the fashion world.And I am soo like Noni I thought you were writing about me. I hope your books get filmed soo I can run to the premire and see it as fast as I can.
I loved hoew you discribed London absolutely diffrent as I know it but great . I read the books at least 6 times
and I tried to design dresses from the books but it didnΒ΄t turn out so well:)
I want to fly to India and look at the bright colours and itΒ΄s great how Idi works to save Children in Uganda and India .
I just loved it.
Catie
Thank you Catie. Your response to the books is exactly what I was hoping for when I wrote them. It’s wonderful to know you’ve enjoyed them so much. Thank you for letting me know. sophia xxx
Hi Sophia!
I absoulty love your books! I am a big fan! We are doing a “your favorite author.” and I chose you! I am currently reading your book.. Sequins, Secrets, and Silver Linings! And Oh my Goodness, it’s so good. It makes want to become a Fashion Designer even more! π
Hi Kaylee. Thank you so much! I’m so glad it inspired you. Good luck with your project – I’m honoured to be in it. sophia xxx
Dear Sophie , I’m a major fan as you can see π . Your my idol and I aspire to be just as good as a writer as you. I’m looking for tips on writing and inspiration lately I’ve been feeling a bit down because although my teachers tell me I’m a fantastic writer I think I’m suffering with writer’s block π I’ve sent you an email and I would be so utterly grateful if you replied .
Love Rebekah xxxxxx
Sophie hi , am I was just wondering you say there is 3 Threads books made and O have all 3 is there any more out and will there be any more coming out soon (In the Thread’s series) xxx Thanks
Hi Rebekah. There are only three books in the Threads series. I’m so glad you have them all! I’d like to write another one one day, but it won’t be for quite a while, as there are a few other stories I want to write first. xxx
Sorry, I accidentally wrote your capitalized!
Hi Sophia! I love YOUR books. I still remember when I met casually Threads in a book fair and I felt I needed to read this book, haha! Then later I bought and loved! You’re a very good writer! Kisses from Brazil π
Hi Amalia. I’m so glad you loved the books. Sadly the third Threads book won’t be coming out in Portuguese, but I hope you’ll be able to enjoy it in English. sophia xxx
You are a great author ( i may have said in my email)
Love ur threads books!! Can’t wait for more! <3 π
You are definately an AMAZING writer. I’ve read ur books like Threads, The Look and Boys, Beads and Bangles and they are so very awesome books i’ve ever read!! Can’t wait for more….!!

You are an amazing writer!!!I got your book ‘The look’ at my school book fair!
Did you get my message from the contact page??
Kai XoXo
Hi Kai – Thank you! I did get your message, and I’ve replied. π
hey i’m reading the look and love it . it’s a type a book to me where i can fell that i’m in the book and i’m only 12 and getting in to reading books like this an d many others thanks
Thanks, Brianna. Keep on enjoying those books! π
I am reading the look right now in Australia. I can’t put the book down it is great. I love it
Thank you! It’s great to hear it. π
That’s really good that you make sure! I stay away from usuing Tide laundry detergent and ajax and dawn dish detergent because of the company they are with. I want to purchase the cruelty- free nailpolish remover from a store called Whole Foods. That store has many things there that is not tested on animals like lotions, shampoos, ect. Oh and Mary Kate makeup is cruelty- free! I just stay away from companies like Johnson & Johnson, Colgate- Palmolive, Palmolive, P&G, etc. So I use Tom’s Of Maine toothpaste and also Palmers cocoa butter is against animal testing and Burts Bees chapstick and natural products do not test on animals!
Hi! I do not know if you remember me but I used to always write you and i’m from the U.S.! Do you have the same information so I can write you more letters? And did you know that some gums have gelatin which is from a innocent pig? If you have to eat Eggs (which i am not recommending) buy uncaged or caged- free Eggs so the Chickens who provide you with the Eggs you eat can run freely:) Some nailpolish removers have gelatin (pig) and some bar soaps are made from animal fat tallow(cow) or lard (pig) and candies and snacks and yogurts like starburst have gelatin this world doesnt need animals in everything! …If we have stuff without it then the other products dont need it either ( They test some nailpolishes, dish and laundry detergent, toothpaste , makeup, cosmetics, household cleaners, deodorants and other things like cigarettes on animals. And they hurt cows to get their milk they make them produce more than they are suppose to. Make sure your stuff is cruelty free opi and sally hansen and LA colors nail polish are cruelty-free check labels! Tell everyone I want there to be no more cruelty. Animals deserve freedom. Thank You sooo much for listening!
Hi Taahirah. It’s great to hear from you again. I always make sure I eat free range eggs if I can, and use products that haven’t been tested on animals. It’s good to know that you are campaigning so passionately for what you believe in – thank you. If you know of other cruelty-free products, do share them. sophia xxx

I am sure I will really love reading the next two books in the threads series!!!
Duncan.
Hi Sophia!
I really am loving the Threads book. Nearly finished it now. I love the character of Crow and her life in Uganda and how she does not know where her brother is and has this tragedy in her life but also is an amazing drawer and seamstress and invents lots of new clothes , love all the other characters too. My fiancee Emma buys mizz and I have read this book from there. I will be getting the other two books from waterstones. I write children’s books, i have written one elephants in space and have three pages to colour in now with paintbox with my friend Tony. I think it is really wonderful you won the times children competition and you deserved to a lot.
Duncan.
Hi Duncan. Thank you so much for your kind comments. And good luck with your amazing-sounding book about elephants in space! sophia xxx
Dear Sophia π
I have sent you some messages on Twitter and you replied (I’m Lara from your son Freddie’s class). I absolutely love your books and have read all the Thread Series and The Look. I went to your Book Launch of The Look. I am looking forward to reading your next book which you are currently writing (About the fat girl). I wish you all the best luck!
Lara xxxx
Thank you, Lara! All good luck wishes are very much appreciated while I’m writing. xxx
Hi Sophia!
I think that your books are great. But i read only one book, becuse i’m from Croatia.
Ti si super i jako mi se sviΔa tvoj naΔin pisanja. Pozdrav iz Hrvatske.
Hi Marija. Thank you so much for your message. I hope more of my books come to Croatia one day. sophia xxx
Hi Sophia,
I understand that you don’t want to be asked about casting, but I was wondering if you could ask Lime Pictures to hold open auditions, or give you some details on the auditions? I would love to audition, but I don’t have an agent, and so would really appreciate any information Lime Pictures could disclose.
Erin x
I’m happy to be asked, but have little to tell you yet!
I’ll let you know when I hear anything. Sophia xxx
I love your books! write some more!!
Thank you! I’ll try … π
hi Sophia!!
I’ve just been on your blog and have seen your book cover competition, I would really love to take part but none of my cameras are working at the moment, please tell me there is another way to enter? if not, could I use google images and make a collage on microsoft??? please tell me there is a solution!!!!!
Luv you lots
Sharron xxxx
Hi Sharron.
If you have a scanner at home, you could use that. Or a collage of web images (or PowerPoint or whatever) would be fine. Just use your imagination! I look forward to seeing your entry. sophia xxx
Hi sophia! I’ve read all your books and love them all so much! I love how they are such a mix of fashion,saving the world and friendship! I didn’t know you could fit so much into a book! Please write more books!
Aimee
Thank you, Aimee. I’ll see what I can do. Busy writing now … sophia xxx
Hi Sophia!
I am coming to see you today at the talk at Tales on Moon Lane! I am coming from Bournemouth and I am so excited! I am a huge fan of your books and will be finishing off ‘The Look’ on the journey π
Paige
Hi Paige. That’s fabulous! I can’t wait to see you there. π
i saw your book THE LOOK on my school library shelf and it just caught my eye. i don’t know why but from all the other books ur book stood out. so i went and read the blurb and the first word i said, wow this book is sooo good before i even read through, so i went and sat down and read for 10 minutes on the first chapter before the bell rudely interrupted me.
sad thing was i couldn’t brow it because i have books borrowed already. i’m going to make sure no one takes it. another sad thing is i have to wait until after EXAMS to read it. i’ve never read any of your books but i think now your on the list for my favourite authors.
Thank you so much! That’s just what an author loves to hear. I hope you get to read it soon. sophia xxx
i had wonderful fun seeing you at hay and cant wait to the next book comes out !
That’s fabulous, Issie. I’ll see you there! xxx
