We're just itching for a return visit from the bestselling and award winning author/illustrator David Shannon, Wednesday, October 2 at 3:00 (presentation at 3:30.) In his new book Bugs in My Hair, he tackles a creepy-crawly topic in his own hilarious style.

Shannon was awarded the Caldecott Honor Medal for No David, had us rolling on the poop deck with laughter with his illustrations for How I Became a Pirate (written by Melinda Long), and had us rethinking those lima beans in the classic book about being yourself, A Bad Case of Stripes (check out the video below of a terrific reading by Sean Astin).

Be prepared to laugh!

Award-winning and bestselling author-artist David Shannon will lure readers with an original tall tale of the fish that got away in his new picture book, Jangles: A Big Fish Story.

Fishing alone at dusk, a boy feels a tug on his line and comes face-to-face with the gigantic trout—whose enormous jaw is covered with so many lures and fish hooks that he jingles and Jangles when he swims. Terrified by the sight, the boy is shocked when Jangles befriends him and takes him on a wild ride to the bottom of the lake. Told from the perspective of a father sharing his own childhood story, the surprise ending to this wild and witty story will capture readers hook, line, and sinker.

David Shannon is the internationally acclaimed creator of more than thirty picture books, including No, David!, a Caldecott Honor Book and his second New York Times Best Illustrated Book of the Year. In addition to three more David picture books, Shannon’s bestsellers include Too Many Toys; How Georgie Radbourn Saved Baseball (newly released in 2012); A Bad Case of Stripes; Duck on a Bike; Alice the Fairy; and Good Boy, Fergus! A native of Spokane, Washington, he is an avid fisherman. He and his family live in California.
