What Talent Do You Wish You Had?

Tony DiTerlizzi is the co-creator and illustrator of the bestselling Spiderwick Chronicles–Yep–that super popular one that was adapted into a feature film. But did you know he’s also co-author and illustrator of a six-book series about Meno, a nostalgically modern space-elf and his out-of-this-world adventures for preschoolers? Here he teams with wife and partner in publishing , Angela, to entertain tiny earthlings and the big earthlings who love them. Each story is told with bright illustrations in nonsensical language, as if it were translated from Meno’s Alien language into English.
In Book Two: Wet Friend!, Meno looks to cheer up his friend Yamagoo the jellyfish. Meno calls Wishi, who grants wishes, to find a friend that can live in the water with Yamagoo and cheer him up! And let’s just say one of the suggested friends is David Hasselhoff! David Hasselhoff in a children’s book–imagine that!
Want to win your own copy of Book Two: Wet Friend! (Adventure of Meno)
