Thanks to everyone in London and Dublin that I met during my quick visit.
Not many pubic appearances, but I did get to hang out with librarians, booksellers, journalists and their ilk.
You can listen to me chat with Ryan Tubridy on his show (Click the Friday the 13th show and zip to the last 15 minutes or so) and I’ll be on RTE’s The Buzz next week showing off my sketchbook and doodling on walls.
My liver would not like to thank pal and funnyman Eoin Colfer for a night on the town in Dublin. ( “Eoin” is pronounced “Bob” by the way…)
While I was away, Knuffle Bunny Too remained on the New York Times Bestseller list for its 31st week, clocking in at #4. Thank you, readers.
More? My local paper reviews Elephant and Piggie (kinda). And speaking of local, Doreen Cronin’s kids like my books. How cool is that?
Very. It is very cool.

Hey Mo. Great to meet you in Dublin at the signing. My daughter Sophie was over the moon. Now I have to read Knuffle Bunny Too EXACTLY as you did, sound fx and all or she gives out. She had a question for you... "is Mo Willems Roald Dahl's brother?"
Hi Mo.
My two children have developed a total booky crush on everything you've written! You're costing me a small fortune. They discovered Leonardo first of all, then Pigeon Wants a Puppy and we're now making our way through the Elephant and Piggy books (my 5-year-old son is learning to read with them. His 2-year-old sister is pointing out where he's going wrong).
Just wanted to tell you we think you're bloody great.
Am just about to write my own blog on your utter brilliance and spread the word! . . .
Okay, that Roald Dahl quote is the nicest thing anyone has ever said about me.
Sophie Rocks!
Mo
Is Bob an official name change??
Hello there. I owe you a huge thank you, your books have become as much a part of our household as the walls (though much more interesting.) During a bike ride yesterday with my three-year-old, she shouted "Party, party, party...!" the entire ride.
I secretly buy the books for myself, but thankfully my daughter adores them just as much. Thank you, thank you. On my tippy-toes... can't wait to see what you come up with next.
