I know that last blog I said we'd be blogging about Dallas today, but we interrupt our own
American Girl book(s) tour blogs (having been
here and
here and
here) to bring you this exciting news . . .
WARP SPEED and
BOBBY THE BRAVE (SOMETIMES) LAUNCH PARTY
March 13, 2011 at 2 pm
Vroman's Pasadena
In honor of this, the handsome and talented
Dan Santat, illustrator of the BOBBY series, and I made this Oscar-worthy (Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Original Script, Best Direction, Best Special Effects, Best Costume, Best Editing, Best Klingon) video invite!!!!
But first, here's an exclusive behind-the-scene photo expose of the shoot . . .
Only, we weren't able to shoot as much at
Vroman's as we wanted, because Dan's video camera batteries were (both) dead.
However, like Captain Kirk, we didn't let that stop us! While Dan's batteries were recharging, I went home and learned how to speak Klingon. (I watched lots of Star Trek clips and tried to imitate them -- and later realized that all the Klingons I saw were MEN and that's why I was speaking so deeply!!!)
Here's the video. Be sure to hang around for the BLOOPERS. We almost couldn't make this because we were laughing so hard . . .
Live in the Boston area? I'll be signing WARP SPEED and my other books at
The Blue Bunny Books and Toys on February 26th in Dedham, MA at 11 a.m. . . .
This month, also look for me at the
American Girl stores in these cities . . .
