Behold the official, double super secret probation cover for my middle school illustrated novel, The Odd Squad: Bully Bait (Disney-Hyperion). It’s Due on book shelves (both real and virtual) February 12, 2013. I got the Advance Review Copy last night and it looks pretty sweet. It has weight and mass and occupies actual physical space. In other words, it’s a real book!
It’s for ages 8-12. And anyone who’s emotional development arrested in middle school. Which includes me and I’m pretty sure most Hedge fans.
So, if you are a parent or a grandparent or a great grandparent or a librarian or a book store owner or a lover of Shakespeare spouting ex-hippie school janitor/mentors (you’ll see) please stay tuned. We’ll be promoting more as we get closer to publication date. In the meantime, I have to write Book 2.
It’s due September 15th.
Yikes.
Congratulations, Mike!
WHOOT!
Live long and prosper (and nurture your inner 12 year old)(it worked for Rick Riordan).
