207

With Rob Caldwell on the set of 207

Last week I was a guest on 207, a nightly magazine show on WCSH6, Maine's NBC affiliate. I chatted with Rob Caldwell about Growing Up Pedro, and about some of my favorite memories of watching Pedro Martinez pitch. Here's the video:

Growing Up Pedro

Here's a quick 30-second look at Growing Up Pedro, my upcoming picture book biography of the great Pedro Martinez.

It doesn't come out until February but you can pre-order it now, from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or an independent bookstore near you. (If you do, please consider yourself pre-thanked!)


And here's the front cover:

"Open Studios" Video

Candlewick Press is in the midst of a yearlong celebration of picture books, during which they're posting a new video every day, on their We Believe in Picture Books website. Today's video shows me in my studio. It's a clip from a DVD Candlewick produced a few years ago, called "Open Studios". Enjoy!

Behind the Scenes- Lady Liberty: A Biography

Here's a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Lady Liberty: A Biography, where I talk about collaborating with Doreen Rappaport. This was originally part of a DVD Candlewick Press put together a few years ago called "Open Studios", which also featured my friends, fellow Candlewick author-illustrators Timothy Basil Ering and Peter H. Reynolds. Enjoy!
