Flop Sweat and Butt Trampolines
July 17th, 2014 by julesThis week over at the Wild Things! site, my co-author and I are doing the following:
- Taking a look at the phenomenon that is the author school visit — the good, the bad, and the ugly. (You’ll see, if you read this post over at Wild Things!, that the title of this post today here at 7-Imp tips its hat to that.)
- Asking whether or not Beatrix Potter really yelled at young children. (The Horn Book’s Lolly Robinson gives us the low-down.)
- Udder Indecencies of one sort or another; or, The Saga of the Unobtrusive Monster Penis (pictured above).
Tomorrow, we’ll have a post Leonard Baskin fans, in particular, will appreciate.
On Saturday, we’ll look at two of children’s literature’s most cryptic picture books.
On Sunday, we’ll look at some true tales behind famous awards speeches.
That’s my story, and I’m stickin’ to it.
