I LOVE Jon Scieszka!

I am currently looking for a library in my inter library loan system that has this book!  This may surprise some of my readers because I tend to like serious books and "challenging reads", this is true, but sometimes you just want to LAUGH- Laugh out loud LAUGH.  And Jon Scieszka makes me do that.  I got to meet him at ALA and would LOVE to feature him on Favorite Author Friday (if anyone knows how to contact him PLEASE let me know!).  In the mean time enjoy some of his Laugh OUT loud books!

  1. Laura, you could try leaving a comment on Betsy Bird or Rebecca Stead's blogs. I see that both of them will be with Jon Scieszka at this event this weekend.

  2. I think you should go to his website and invite him to visit your blog. He would LOVE your blog! If that doesn't work then there is probably a "contact" link on his site for a publicist (the person who arranges his public appearances,etc). You could contact that person with your proposal. Shouldn't be hard to arrange because you can do it all, even the interview, by email. Good luck!

    Just so you know, John is crazy about kids, especially ones who read.
