Hey, anybody want to go to Willow Books in Acton tomorrow and meet Berke Breathed? And give me a ride? And have dinner paid for by mr spatch of beverly hills?
I saw him read Red Ranger Came Calling at BU (the art for the book was projected behind him) and by the end the entire audience was smiling and teary-eyed. It was awesome.
Red Ranger Came Calling is an awesome book. Even moreso than A Wish For Wings That Work.
His new childrens' book is called MARS NEEDS MOMS! and features a young fellow who decides who needs moms anyway? Then the Martians say "why we do!" and faster than you can say Whitley Streiber, she's been kidnapped and now the boy gotsta go to Mars and start tha reactuhs!
No, but if you want to see Michael Chabon read from his new book, he's at First Parish Cambridge (sponsored by Harvard Book Store) tonight at 6:30. Tickets are $5.
