FINALLY. There's a longer story behind this announcement, because I was working on a different book before I went down this rabbit hole a year and a half ago. Now I've got to write as though my hair is on fire. Coming to bookstores in 2028.

Jim Henson would have been 90 (yup, you read that right: NINETY) years old today. You can celebrate his life by celebrating creativity, diversity, peace, imagination, and silliness.
