Upcoming book signing events
Larry and I will be at two upcoming events, signing books and looking handsome. If you’d like to pick up a signed, personalized copy of Even Monsters Need Haircuts or Benjamin Franklinstein Lives in time for Halloween, here’s your chance. Plus, even if you don’t buy a book, we’ll look a lot less lonely if you swing by and pretend to talk to us. It’s win-win!

The Book House of Stuyvesant Plaza
1475 Western Avenue, Albany NY
(518) 489 – 4761
The Book House is a terrific independent bookstore, one of the best I know. Larry and I will be there signing from 2:00pm until the line dies down, probably around 2:02pm, maybe even later. Even if you don’t feel like buying one of our books, why not swing by and pick up something else?
SLMS 2010
This past weekend Larry and I spoke at the NY State SLMS Conference for school library media specialists. We ate a delicious lunch, then spoke for a little while about writing Benjamin Franklinstein Lives! and screened our new video.
Wow, what nice people those librarians are. Turns out I even had some food on my jacket and no one said a thing.
Also, we’ve launched a new website for the book. If you get a chance, check it out…
