that's some stinky cheese, man

Jon Scieszka, the author of witty and subversive children’s favorites like “The True Story of the Three Little Pigs” and “The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales,” is to be named the country’s first national ambassador for young people’s literature on Thursday, a kind of children’s book version of the Library of Congress’s poet laureate program.


You can read more about it here...

I just have to say "WOOHOO!" Love John Scieszka. Have very fond memories of Andy reading the voice of the Stinky Cheese Man on one of our many "story tapes" for our nieces and nephews. (For those not in the know, we read about an hour's worth of books on to a cd for the kiddos every year or so for Christmas so Uncle A & Aunt B can read them bedtime stories.)
