I’m a little behind in posting–the holidays are busy, I’m glad to say–but I don’t want you to miss out on the NPR interview with John Scieszka this past weekend. Scieszka is the author of Stinky Cheese Man and his recent memoir Knucklehead; he’s also the Library of Congress’ first national ambassador to children’s literature.

The whole interview is good, but the best part is the fanfare which a fifth grade class in California composed for Mr. Ambassador. I want one of those when I enter a room, too.–David E
