1. Kidlit Critterpalooza!

In which Critter tries to rescue Jacqui and then tells you about a cool contest.

Hello, Critter here. Remember me?

I tried to rescue Jacqui. I went to the library where she was working, but she was bound and tied to her laptop in the third floor quiet room and the strange looking couple guarding the door wouldn't let me in.

And then I remembered! Critterpalooza! kicks off today! Want to win some SWEET prizes, including a signed copy of Two of a Kind and a live chat with Jacqui and some other cool authors? Go to the Bookshelf Muse today. Want to know more about the contest and me? Read on.

First, artist Ian Sands made me. He hid 500 of us all over the city as part of an interactive art project. The amazing Christy Evers found me. And then she sent me to see the world!

I have visited PJ Hoover (and the Texas Sweethearts!) in Texas, Beth Revis in North Carolina, Christina Farley in Korea, New England with Nandini Bajpai, Illinois with Kelly Polark, MG Higgins in California, Rena Jones in Montana, Cynthia Leitich Smith in Texas, Bish Denham in the Virgin Islands, Tina Ferraro in California, Cynthia Chapman Willis in New Jersey, Jill S. Alexander in Texas, Ellen Oh in Virginia and finally, Alberta Canada with Angela Ackerman. Oh, and along the way, I caused chaos in Jacqui's Room.

I have been to college, rock concerts, national landmarks, a palace, attended my first SCBWI conference, walked among giant redwoods, and met the world famous artist, Robert Bateman. Now my journey is coming to a close. It's time to celebrate, over at The Bookshelf Muse. M
