Ha ha ha. For some strange age-induced, hard-drive-overload, blocked-childhood reason, it never occurred to me that the title of my latest picture book is the repeating stanza of the song I sang to my kids endlessly. YIKES!
Here’s the PM announcement:
Author of TOO PURPLEY! and TOO PICKLEY! Jean Reidy’s ALL THROUGH THE TOWN, with WHO IS DRIVING? illustrator Leo Timmers illustrating, giving a child’s-eye-view of community with a soothing rhythmic verse, again to Michelle Nagler at Bloomsbury Children’s, by Erin Murphy of Erin Murphy Literary Agency (world).
I’m so excited to be working with Michelle again. And while I know you’re all crazy busy – especially you NANOWRIMONITES – I’d love for you to check out the illustrator Leo Timmers at http://www.leotimmers.com/. Oh man, his driving critters crack me up.
So happy to be celebrating this latest sale with all of you!!
Jean
Yay Jean!
Thanks so much, Lauren!!
Now I have that song running through my head, lol.
Congrats, Jean! Love his art!
Wonderful, Jean! Congratulations!!

Thank you, Megan!!
Huge congratulations for selling your new books! I like Timmers' illustration colors and his 3d style very much. I'm delighted by your success – you're an inspiration in this difficult industry. 🙂
Laura,<br />Thank you for your VERY kind words. <br />Jean
