What I’m Doing at Kirkus This Week
July 12th, 2012 by julesAt Kirkus this morning, I chat with the very busy and very talented Dan Santat, staring valiantly to my left here.
That Q & A is here, if you’re so inclined to read it.
Dan has several illustrated titles either just out or about to come out, and he takes the time from his busy schedule to tell me about them — as well as to discuss highbrow humor for children, Hitchcock films, working in black and white, and more.
Tomorrow over there, I’ll be featuring the latest picture book from Hyewon Yum, which is called, Mom, It’s My First Day of Kindergarten! That link will be here in the morning.
Go Dan!
Jules, listen to Erin McCarley performing Elevator live.

Praise all singers whose voices rock and therefore their recordings sound just like their live performances, and whose live performances sound just like their recordings.
As in, they don’t use auto-tune and fakery, and they sing live.
