Hello, 2010!

Ahhh... It's so nice to be able to say TWENTY TEN. I spent the last decade uncertain of the proper form for discussing years ('aught seven? Oh five? two thousand and zzzzz? )

Twenty Ten also looks to be an exciting year at the Mo Willems Studio with a multitude of new books coming out, including the final volume of the Knuffle Bunny Trilogy, more Elephant and Piggie, a new series about Cat the Cat and her friends, and a picture book illustrated by the great Jon J Muth.

Additionally, Knuffle Bunny: a Cautionary Musical will premier at the Kennedy Center this spring, followed by a national tour in the fall.

There will also be new websites, new Pigeon stuff, some art and cartoon surprises and mo'!

As for touring, I will be making scheduled public appearances in the following towns:

Pittsburg, PA

Dallas, TX

New Orleans, LA

Houston, TX

Austin, TX

San Francisco, CA

Los Angeles, CA

Chicago, IL

Cleveland, OH

Miami, FL

The Cayman Isl. (really)

Florence, MA

Northampton, MA

Washington, DC

White River Junction, VT

New York, NY

Bolder, CO

Denver, CO

Portland, OR

Seattle, WA

Nashville, TN

Atlanta, GA

New Jersey

and more.

(If I’m not visiting near you, I apologize. But, as you can see I’m pretty booked up.)

There will be many more exciting announcements in the next year, so keep it tuned here throughout the year and have a great TWENTY TEN!
