Okay, a little background before we launch into this one. Before Chris Grabenstein wrote Mr. Lemoncello’s Library (a book for which he is justifiably famous) he wrote a whole heaping helpful of other books. For decades. Seriously, the man has paid his dues. Now he has a new book out with absolutely zip, zero, zilch Lemoncello ties and I get to reveal the cover. Here’s what makes me happy about this:
- There is a pink flamingo involved.
- Motels make me happy, which I’ll admit is odd but there you go.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you . . . Welcome to Wonderland.
A beauty, yes?
And as a delicious little closing, here’s an interview I conducted with said Mr. Grabenstein last year. Note the truly amazing images behind his head. Now THAT is what a children’s author’s home should look like people. Stuffs stuffs n’ more stuffs.
Who did the illustrations (or illustration, if there’s no interior art)?
Dunno. I like it, that’s for sure. Looks familiar but I don’t have a name.
Brooke Allen (Lumberjanes!) and lots of interior art!
THAT is why it looked familiar! Danke, Shana.
Most welcome, Betsy 🙂
