Welcome to the home of all things Pinkwater!

New book: “Mrs. Noodlekugel and Four Blind Mice”

From Jennifer Laughran:

Nick and Maxine and their babysitter Mrs Noodlekugel (along with, of course, her cat butler and four magical mice) are back! The first MRS NOODLEKUGEL adventure is now available in paperback, and as of today, there is a brand-new installment in the series: MRS NOODLEKUGEL AND FOUR BLIND MICE.

Four farsighted mice get glasses — and a talking cat solves a family mystery — as the charmingly eccentric Mrs. Noodlekugel returns… It’s all a day in the life of Daniel Pinkwater’s whimsical characters, in a chapter-book series whose comical tone and cozy illustrations are sure to keep young readers coming back for more.

Daniel Pinkwater’s FISH WHISTLE is back in a new e-edition. Feel free to click over and “like” it… and even buy a copy if you are so inclined. It is chock full of short essays on a variety of topics, from traveling in Africa (and eating the world’s hottest chili pepper!), to raising dogs (or having them raise you…). They are short and fun and sure to amuse. And hey: $2.99, not too shabby!
