Moo-La-La-Ti-Da! was just released!
That means today's my birthday AND my latest book's birthday too. I love birthdays - the excitement, the wishes, the CAKE! So, I'm throwing a virtual party and YOU get the presents(but, I'm eating the cake)!
Where did you get the idea for this book?
When my kids were a little younger, they got a kick out of their dad's (bad) jokes. One he used maybe a bit to often was "Where does a cow go on a date?" Answer? "To the MOOOOvies!"
Cringey? Maybe. But it got them thinking about words and puns. And, as a logophile (lover of words), I appreciate a good pun. So, when my daughter used the phrase 'Moo-la-la', I spun that around in my mind until the story of the fancy cow who paints the barn beautiful began to develop. Approximately, five million and one versions later, it's finally published and ready to be shared!
Cool story, but what about the presents you mentioned we get?
