New agent

Welcome to my new agent Eddie Schneider of the JABberwocky Literary Agency. We're already off to a great start.

Petronella Saves Nearly Everyone

Go to bookstore now.
Buy Petronella Saves Nearly Everyone in the series The Entomological Tales of Augustus T. Percival.

I'm so excited about this book. The cover is wonderful and Jen Corace, the illustrator, did a great job of drawing the characters and some bugs and making cute beetles for the chapter headings and page numbers. It looks quite amazing.
Thanks to Kate O'Sullivan of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt for all of her hard work and very astute advice.
