Scholastic Book Club is coming to my house this weekend to film me for their Author Video series for How to Steal a Dog.
I am, of course, flattered.
But....a little worried.
First of all - it takes four hours to film a two-minute video.
Second of all, they are bringing a CREW and, um, want something interesting.
A crew?
Interesting?
This is part of the info I received from them:
The best is when we go on location to places that relate to your book. Recently we took an author out on a boat with alligators while another was filmed in a cheese store in NYC.
Uh oh.
What the heck am I going to do?
Me at my desk?
Nah.
Me at my computer?
Nah.
Me watching Judge Judy.
No way.
Me playing my African djembe drum?
I don't think so.
Heating up some Lean Pockets for dinner?
Guess not...
Me with Hello Kitty?
Thanks for the suggestion, Sarah, but I don't think so.
Me stealing a dog?
Hmmmmm.
That might work...
I don't know about this......
At least I got new slippers.

I can't wait to see where they take you.
Hey! Maybe YOUR dog gets to star!
Congrats, Barbara!! You'll be so famous!
I think you should definitely show them those wicked good slippahs.
That is AWESOME, Barb! I had no idea Scholastic made videos for books. Where do they show it? Give more details!
It is pretty cool. Here's the info they sent:
We produce it for our book fairs to introduce children to
authors/illustrators of some of the more exciting books that they will
encounter on the fair. We send it to all of the schools that host a fair
so it is viewed by as many as 24 million children.
