Interesting Interview with Author Brian Selznick
I recently heard a great interview with the award-winning author and children's book illustrator, Brian Selznick. Mr. Selznick's new book, Wonderstruck, debuted earlier this month to raving editorial reviews, and high ratings on user-rated websites. Using the illustration/text format he used in The Invention of Hugo Cabret, the new novel follows two youngsters whose paths eventually cross, and who share a trait: they are both deaf.
