About the author

Hi! Bobbi here.

I specialize in media creative writing: developing/writing online games and MMORPGs, books, comics, animation, and other products that tie into film and television shows, as well as the development and creation of new tie-in products. I've written everything from Nickelodeon’s RIDE novelizations and Disney's PIXIE HOLLOW MMO to interactive ebooks based on the Mooshka doll line and an original non-fiction text published by Heinemann entitled WRITING IS ACTING: HOW TO IMPROVE THE WRITER’S ONPAGE PERFORMANCE. I've also self-published—an original horror novel that involves the Peter Pan mythos entitled HOOKED (Publishers Weekly gave it a great review!).

You can find my entire resume and cover gallery at http://www.BobbiJGWeiss.com. I also post Facebook, tumblr, twitter and other social media sites. Find links to my social profiles on my website.

The "graphic novel" design makes this ideal for children as the pictures really help tell the story. It's especially good that there are so many on each page since it is a surprisingly text heavy rendition of the movie. Originally one of the last children's books I bought myself at a grade school book fair, this is now part of my daughter's book collection. She doesn't "read" it as often as she looks at the pictures and asks for a story, but she's definitely interested in it.
