1. Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day becoming a movie….

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day is being developed as a “high-concept family comedy” movie by Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum), according to Cynopsis Kids (via Variety). Rob Lieber (Septimus Heal: Magyk) will write the screenplay. Apparently there was also an animated musical special and a musical theatrical based on this much-loved book.

I’m not sure how I feel about this book being made into a movie. I happen to LOVE this picture book. And…er…I don’t see how a picture book becomes a full-length movie. I haven’t much liked the few movies I’ve seen based on picture books I love. Have you?

What I always come back to, though, is that if this gets more people to read the book, maybe it’s a good thing.

What do you think?
