My new PB baby to be "delivered"...
« on: October 12, 2012, 08:40 AM »
...December 4th!!! :tigger :tigger :tigger

*squeeeeeeee*!!!!!!!!!!

GOOD NEWS NELSON (Story Pie Press) features a young paperboy who realizes that sometimes it's not enough to just deliver the news, sometimes you have to do something about it...and celebrates the fact that little kids can make a big difference!

:cat (Spoiler alert: it also features cats...lots and lots of cats...)

So excited my new little baby will be out in the world soon! Special thanks to my wonderful illustrator Brendan Flannelly-King, my amazing editor Mary Rand Hess and the entire YUMMY Story Pie family! And...of course, to all of YOU for all of your support, information and inspiration!

Love & hugs, Jodi  :love5:
