Dear Librarian: "He spends a lot of time looking out the window," read one of my seventh grade report cards. I still do. And I have a feeling I'm not alone. (I wonder if my favorites Silverstein, Gorey, Nash, and Lear didn't spend time daydreaming by the window a bit?). BEASTLY FEASTS! is a book I would have liked to read as a kid, kind of scary, yet fun, a book of mischievous rhymes for all those daydreamers who wonder and imagine just like I did. Thank you for sharing BEASTLY FEASTS!, illustrated by the incomparable Ronald Searle (yes, New Yorker magazine readers, THAT Ronald Searle) with kids of all ages these past few years. I'm still looking out that window and will be publishing another madcap menagerie in rhyme in October. If you'd like a chance at a sneak peek at LET'S HAVE A BITE!, please email me at beastlyfeasts@gmail.com. Enjoy, Robert L. Forbes PS: Click here to come say hi via Facebook, too.
