Do you know the story of the creation of The Stinky Cheese Man? Maybe you do, maybe you don't, but you won't be able to get the truest truth unless you hear it straight from the horses' mouths.

Fuse 8 n’ Kate: The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith
"Nobody wants your bunny snot cake, buddy." In this episode Kate decides to take the Wolf at his word and, as you might expect, we find some holes in his defense.

I’d like to offer a word of warning to my mother with this one. Somehow, this ended up being our longest episode. Mom, if you listen to this on the treadmill, you might do yourself a serious injury. It’s a whopping 48:17 (and that’s edited down!). I guess it’s not surprising when you do a […]

Now you can do both. In celebration of […]
Fusenews: Knowing your funny from your droll
With Comic Con NYC later this week, publisher previews on the rise, and various work-related meetings, talks, and speeches I’m just the teeniest tiniest bit busy this week. But no matter! It is you, dear readers, that give me what for and how to. For you I would forgo all the sleep in the world. […]
Video Sunday: Met the ghost of David Wiesner at the Hotel Paradise . . .
Here we are in the glory of spring. With all the beauty just ah-popping outdoors, what better time to sequester ourselves inside to watch mad videos about children’s literature related affairs? So first and foremost, you may have seen me make mention of the fact that I had a podcasting-related Children’s Literary Salon last weekend. […]
