popular author and illustrator Jarrett Krosoczka to the lower school!
popular author and illustrator Jarrett Krosoczka to the lower school! Mr. Krosoczka's break-out book was Punk Farm, which features a band of jammin' animals that rock the barnyard behind the back of Farmer Joe. For an encore, there was Punk Farm on Tour. Check out http://www.punkfarm.com/ to hear the band, and stay tuned for first grade's animal research and art projects.
As if that weren't enough fun from one man, he followed with another stellar performance - a graphic novel called Lunch Lady &
the Cyborg Substitute, which sealed Mr. Krosoczka's fate as a superstar in the children's book world. Think Jon Scieszka and Rick Riordan fame. Two more Lunch Lady books have since been released, while another, Lunch Lady and the Summer Camp Shakedown, is due out May 11. Word is that actress Amy Poehler will star in the forthcoming Lunch Lady movie. For more information on the books as well as wallpaper and activity downloads, visit http://www.lunchladycomics.com/.
