Boo Hoo Bird is nominated for the Blue Spruce Award in Ontario this year so it's a good opportunity to get out there and do some promoting with my audience (and if I'm lucky my audience will vote for me and Boo Hoo will win -- not that I care about winning or anything!). Anyway, I wanted to share this photo with you. Lisa Hough, a teacher at Bridlewood Elementary School, baked these amazing Bird shaped cakes. She runs a little business called Markham Cakes and Sweets. Check it out. Pretty amazing, yes? So if you're in the greater Toronto area and you're looking for an excellent cake baker/decorator... highly recommended.

ME HUNGRY! in board book form. I'm really excited about this as I think the smaller format will really suit the book. ME HUNGRY! was largely inspired by two of my all time favourite board books: Jez Alborough's beautiful HUG and Peggy Rathman's lovely Goodnight Gorilla. Chris Raschka's Yo! Yes?
(although not a board book) was also a big inspiration. I have high hopes that the board book will be widely available and will find a permanent home in this format. Huge thanks must be given to Candlewick for the decision to make this book available in the smaller format.
Anyway, I hope your 2010 is full of marvelous good times and much happiness.
