Are you excited?

Amulet Books, an imprint of Abrams, has revealed the new cover for the 10th installment of Kinney’s Wimpy Kid series,Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Old School. During a live webcast with more than 500,000 worldwide viewers, Kinney showed the new cover for the book, which releases November 3 in a worldwide on-sale date across 16 countries.


The book follows protagonist Greg Heffley on a week long field trip to a farm, where he navigates the age gap between the kids and their chaperones. For Kinney, the bold black cover takes the series in a different direction: “For the 10th book, I wanted to bring things back to basics, and nothing says ‘Old School’ for a cartoonist more than black, the color of ink,” he said in a release.
To support the global release event, which Abrams hopes will make this “the biggest book and book event of the year, not just in North America but around the world,” said Michael Jacobs, president and CEO of Abrams, Kinney will head out on an around-the-world tour, a first for the series.

3 Questions with children's author Greg Foley

Author Greg Foley answers three questions he has always wanted to be asked. I’ve got a great idea for a children’s book – What should I do next?  Like many children’s authors, this is something I get asked all the time. My advice to anyone who wants to write children’s books, is to start with a children’s writing workshop. Doesn’t matter if it’s a weekend course, online or a night class (my fav). It’s where I started, learning the most basic rules and practices. One of the best tips I received was not to share my work with friends and family, because you’ll just get compliments. Instead, as with any craft you should share with other people who are trying to do the same thing. My first book, Thank You Bear , is about the creative journey. You think you have something great and the world is full of cynics. There was even a blog post I saw that used Thank You Bear as an example of the types of people you’ll encounter as an entrepreneur.
