If I lived in New York, I'd track him down for you. Promise. If he is ever in Las Vegas, consider it done.

The Three Robbers was one of my very special books when I was little. I read it to my son and he loved it too. I wish I was in NY too!
ReplyDeleteJoseph Fox Bookshop in Philly (http://www.foxbookshop.com/) is selling the books for the Free Library event - they can probably get you a signed copy!
ReplyDeleteTomi Ungerer will also be at The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art on June 18th for an exhibition opening and June 19th for a book signing and personal gallery tour. www.carlemuseum.org Come see his original children's book illustration.
ReplyDeleteAwesome, thanks Sandy!
ReplyDeleteI spoke to your sister in the line at the drawing center. And you won't believe the way Mr Ungerer signed the book for you - just incredible.
