Fuse #8 TV: Henry Clark and The Book That Proves Time Travel Happens
I’m a sucker for a good time travel story. By my count only a few have ever won the Newbery (is it two or three? You decide). Fewer still have won the National Book Award in the youth category. Even so, they live in a special place in my heart. So to hear that a book has the title The Book That Proves Time Travel Happens . . . well that’s a near impossible title to resist, is it not? This week on Fuse #8 TV I interview Henry Clark, but only after I tell you the terrible secret lurking in your copy of Go, Dog, Go.
By the way, this episode was very fun to record. Too fun, in fact. Under normal circumstances I can remember to thank my sponsor and to place their title card at the end of each episode. This time I was so wowed by the prospect of coffee cups and what have you that it completely skipped my mind. So a big hearty THANK YOU to Little, Brown for Mr. Clark’s presence. Here is the slide I forgot to project:

Betsy, I’m so glad I’m now following your blog regularly now. I’ve been missing out on so much good stuff and now I won’t be! LOVE Fuse #8 TV 😀 Terrific interview. And you know, it’s hard for me to believe or accept the fact that, although Are You My Mother? was one of my favorite books as a child, I have NEVER read Go, Dog, Go!” I must rectify that!
