Tony DiTerlizzi will sign and discuss his new book, A Hero for WondLa (Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers; $17.99).

New York Times bestselling author and illustrator, Tony DiTerlizzi, has been creating books with Simon and Schuster for over a decade. From his fanciful picture books like, Jimmy Zangwow’s Out-of-this-World Moon Pie Adventure, Adventure of Meno (with his wife, Angela) and The Spider & The Fly (a Caldecott Honor book), to chapter books like Kenny and The Dragon and The Search for WondLa, Tony always imbues his stories with a rich imagination. His middle-grade series, The Spiderwick Chronicles (with Holly Black), has sold millions of copies, been adapted into a feature film, and has been translated in over thirty countries.

Hicklebee's is excited to host author/illustrator Tony DiTerlizzi. Tony received a Caldecott Honor Medal for The Spider & the Fly and is the co-creator and illustrator of The Spiderwick Chronicles. His first chapter book, Kenny & the Dragon, debuted as a New York Times bestseller. In The Search for WondLa, also a New York Times bestseller, Tony DiTerlizzi honors traditional children’s literature in a totally original space age adventure: one that is as complex as an alien planet, but as simple as a child’s wish for a place to belong.

Tony presents the second installment of the WondLa universe - A Hero for WondLa.

What will Kenny do to avert disaster? Ages 9-12. (booksense)… (more)
