Freak out

SCBWI L.A bulletin: Yesterday I met and spoke to Jon Scieszka. Author of The Stinky Cheese Man. Star of the fabulous autobiography Knucklehead. Former children's literature ambassador and champion of Guys Read. Smartest troublemaker I know.

Turns out he's read Operation Yes.

Freak out.



Can you see the little green army man? His bazooka is being gallantly aimed away from my face by Jon.

    HOORAY! I'm so psyched he read OPERATION YES! Love that photo, too!

    Apropos of nothing, my verification word is "goatess" - is that a female goat? Who can say?
