What I’m Up To at Kirkus This Week
January 10th, 2013 by jules
Today over at Kirkus, I’ve got a brief Q&A with author/illustrator Bob Staake about his upcoming Spring picture book release from Schwartz & Wade Books, Bluebird, pictured left, which is simply stunning. (I was lucky enough to see an early copy.)
I also ask him about December’s Look! Another Book! (Little, Brown), which is the very fun sequel to 2011’s Look! A Book!, as well as what’s next on his plate.
That Q&A is here.
Next week here at 7-Imp, I’ll follow up with some sketches and artwork from Bob.
Tomorrow at Kirkus, I take a look at My Father’s Arms Are a Boat (Enchanted Lion), originally published in Norgwegian in 2008 and written by Stein Erik Lunde and illustrated by Øyvind Torseter. That link will be here in the afternoon on Friday. (Notice that Kirkus has all spiffy-like redesigned their site.)
Until then …
The children LOVE Bob Staake books! Our 7 yr old got “Look! A Book!” and he hasn’t stopped laughing for days…loves it!!
