This today in Publisher’s Marketplace:
World rights to author of the forthcoming ALL THE WORLD (illustrated by Marla Frazee) Liz Garton Scanlon’s picture book NOODLE AND LOU, about a worm and a bird who have an unlikely and unconditional friendship, to be published in summer 2010 and illustrated by MR. PUTTER AND TABBY’s Arthur Howard, to Allyn Johnston at Beach Lane Books, by Erin Murphy.

Am I blessed in the illustrator department, or what!??!?!???!?!
