Noodle and Lou

Just a quick note to share the happy news that my next book, Noodle & Lou, has a release date of March 8th, 2011.

My agent shared the cover image last week on Facebook, but for those of you who aren’t Facebookians, here it is:

I’m completely biased, but I think it’s pretty darn cute.
(And I’ve got all the proofs here on my dining room table — it’s not just the cover!
The other pages hold up pretty well, too. 🙂

I think illustrator Arthur Howard (of Cynthia Rylant’s Mr. Putter and Tabby series) is a master at combining whimsy with heart. I’m so grateful for what he’s done with this funny little tale…

    Oh, thank you — since I’m not on FB, I feel like I’m partially deaf or something — missing half of all conversations.

    This is adorable!! Yay!!

    So cute! The main characters are great, but I love those ladybugs and bees or hornets or whatever, too!
