Wimpy Clip
The outstanding children’s lit blog Literate Lives posted a video with author/illustrator Jeff Kinney. The first half is interview, the second half is presentation. In fact, Mr. Kinney turns the in-store presentation on its head with a game of Wimpy Kid Jeopardy. My favorite part? The whole thing is filmed right here in the Great Lakes State at Boarders bookstore in Ann Arbor, MI. I know that town! Click the play button below to head over to Literate Lives and watch. You might just find out the title for the next Wimpy Kid book.

Thanks for the link! The Wimpy Kid books are the most popular reserve in our library right now.
Same here. Thanks for finding the clip, I really enjoyed watching!
Thanks for such a kind shout out! I really got it by fluke, and saw it was so great, I just had to share the wealth.
