I’ll be a part of the New York Public Library’s Children’s Literary Salon on writing funny books for kids. Here is the official description:

Funny Ha-Ha: Humorous Books for Kids
Hosted by Betsy Bird, Children’s Literary Salon continues our series where we explore amusing books for children, we look at funny books in a myriad of forms: funny picture books, funny graphic novels, and funny early chapter books. Join Dave Roman (Astronaut Academy), Nick Bruel (Bad Kitty), Laurie Keller (Arnie the Donut) and Jules Feiffer (Bark, George) as we look at finding the funny for different ages of kids.
