Fusenews: Red-bearded ghosts welcome!

I begin today with news that is only tangentially children’s literature related. My excuse is that it makes me so happy I can hardly breathe. For Christmas I got the soundtrack of the musical Matilda, and I’ve been cooing over the brilliant lyrics and music ever since. Tim Minchin was the man behind said lyrics and music. Now I discover that Matthew Warchus (the director of Matilda) and Tim will pair together once more . . . for a Groundhog Day musical!! And yes, that would be the 1993 movie...
