Benjamin McFadden and the Robot Babysitter
Just got an email: the good people at Disney have renewed their option on the film rights for my book Benjamin McFadden and the Robot Babysitter. We signed the initial contract two years ago; this is their indication that they're interested in continuing to develop the project. I'm very excited and very grateful.

"My Dad's Job" purchased by Nickelodeon
I've been having a run of good luck with film rights in the last little while. The latest news is that Nickelodeon Films has purchased the rights to My Dad's Job, a picture book written by ace New York City bookseller Peter Glassman for which I did the illustrations. Nickelodeon optioned it at the time it was published in 2003 and for some reason decided to seal the deal this fall.
Here's one of the interiors. You might want to click on it to get the bigger version:

Three At Sea... on TV
We all know that once books go out into the world, all kinds of random things can happen to them... most of them horrible, but once in a while you get something so awesomely peculiar that, in trying to describe it, the words degenerate into the kind of mumbly protolanguage last heard on Earth at the time of the australopithecines.
Things like, oh I don't know... Brooke Shields offering a copy of your book to her TV kid in the course of an episode of her show Lipstick Jungle:
Yes, that foreshortened hardcover is, in fact, Three At Sea, a picture book I did all the way back in 1994. Don't believe me? Watch the episode on the NBC website... the moment occurs around minute 32:50.
They actually wanted to use another book of mine, Benjamin McFadden and the Robot Babysitter, but the - I'm not making this up - set-dressing rights were not available because they were covered by the film option contract I already signed on that book with the nice people over at Disney. So I offered them this one instead.
Surreal.
