Shall We Play Ball and See a Whale?

h1 May 2nd, 2013 by jules


Next week, Neal Porter/Roaring Brook will release the latest picture book from Julie Fogliano, if you want to see a whale, illustrated by Erin E. Stead. I’ve got a review over at BookPage, if you’re so inclined to read my thoughts. That is here. I hope to follow up here at 7-Imp in the near future with some art from the book.

Did you know Fogliano is the 2013 Ezra Jack Keats New Writer Award winner? Here is an interview with her over at their site.

Today at Kirkus, I’m chatting with author Robert Skead and illustrator Floyd Cooper about Something to Prove: The Great Satchel Paige vs. Rookie Joe DiMaggio, released by Carolrhoda Books in April. That conversation is here. Next week here in 7-Imp Land, I’ll have some spreads from the book.

Until tomorrow …

  1. Go, you, with the BookPage review. I’m especially looking forward to seeing some new art from Erin Stead.
