Uncle John's Bathroom Readers FOR KIDS!
For the past year, I've been working on many, many short pieces of nonfiction and fiction for three upcoming editions of the Uncle John's Bathroom Readers FOR KIDS (Portable Press). Kim T. Griswell (Highlights for Children) has been my editor and I've had the great luck to join writers Rich Wallace, Mark Haverstock, Nancy Coffelt and Carly Shuna as part of the "Bathroom Readers' Institute" in creating these three, distinctive books:
Kid-topia
Enchanted Toilet
Smell-O-Scopic
Haunted Outhouse
Kerry Halls also contributed to the creation of several of my submissions and was brilliant.
Two of the three books should be available in the summer and fall of 2012. The third, I'm guessing in the winter or spring of 2013. They are perfect for kids -- especially reluctant readers -- 9 and up. If your kids love the Ripley's books or the Guiness Books of World Records, they'll love Uncle John's for Kids. Trust me. I love them all, too.
I've posted two of the three covers above. The third is a past edition. I'll post the last cover as soon as I get it. Hoping there will be more with my contributions as the world keeps flushing. I'm really proud of this effort -- and it's been INTENSE, but amazing! : )
