A ‘Tale’ of More Success Ahead
I have some news to share about Minnesota young adult novelist and former Northfield Reads! star Kate DiCamillo (who also happens to have a Newbery Medal sitting on her mantel):
Candlewick Press has announced plans to release “The Magician’s Elephant,” for middle-graders, in fall 2009. DiCamillo also has a picture book, Louise: The Adventures of a Chicken, coming out this fall.
DiCamillo-authored books, which include Newbery winner The Tale of Despereaux, have been published in 30 languages and there are more than 10.5 million copies in print.
By the way, a film deal has already been reached for “The Magician’s Elephant.”
