Hi Everyone!
Happy New Year!
I hope you all had spectacular holidays!
I was going to have a spectacular pitch pick today – two actually – but I haven’t heard back from all the pitchers… so I’m either going to post that later or wait until next Wednesday.
Meanwhile, for the sake of filling today’s space (and not because I’ve been pushed into it by a headstrong llama who desperately needs a haircut!) there’s a new llama in town!
I am so excited about this book! A lot of you are probably familiar with Daniel’s art from WHEN YOUR LION NEEDS A BATH and WHEN YOUR ELEPHANT HAS THE SNIFFLES, but he gets better with every book. The art in this one is hilarious! I just love the llama’s expressions 🙂
I owe this book a little attention, but I felt like I’d blog-toured myself and everyone else out last summer with LION, ELEPHANT and TRUCKS, and following so close on the holidays I didn’t want to impose on your good nature. So maybe I’ll think up a little something at some point, but for now, I hope you’ll just all get a chance to enjoy the book somewhere!
Here’s a little sneak peek at some of the interior art:
There’s a GoodReads giveaway for this book if you’re interested… and I think I still have a couple copies available if anyone wants one to read and review on GoodReads, Amazon, B&N, their blog, etc… Email me if you’d like one!

Happy New Year! This looks so cute and congratulations.
Thanks so much, Nancy! And Happy New Year to you too!!!
All llamas need haircuts. Love this whole series.
You are correct, Kathy! But NO llamas like to HAVE their haircut, so it is quite the challenge! 🙂 So glad you like the series – thank you so much!
Hugs, Susanna! No doubt–you’re a writer! And a great teacher, friend, cheerleader . . .
Aw shucks, Wendy! Hugs to you too and thank you! You are a great writer and friend too! ❤
Congratulations Susanna.
Thanks, Greg 🙂
Congratulations! This looks adorable!
Thanks so much, Heather! 🙂
I love Llamas! Congratulations!
Thanks, Donna! Llama says to tell you he loves you too for loving llamas and you have great taste! 🙂
My grandson must be part llama as he has white blond hair that tangles. Would love to share your book with him.
My son (to whom the book is dedicated!) is definitely part llama 🙂 If you want a copy to review and share with your grandson, Sue, let me know!
Oh my word! That hair is amazing! Congratulations on what looks like another hilarious book! This llama-loving girl is going to order a copy right now. 🙂
You’re so sweet, Becky, thank you!!! And I know – isn’t the hair fantastic?! 🙂
Congratulations Susanna, this book looks like a hairball of fun! Can’t wait to read it!
Thanks, Jean! I hope you like it!!! 🙂
Looks adorable, Susanna! (By the way, my prize from your Christmas contest came today! Thanks so much.)
I love your llama!
Thanks, Kaye! And glad your prize arrived safely! 🙂
Love this book, Susanna…I didn’t realize (or I forgot) that you had a book birthday coming up so soon. You’ve been BUSY! Don’t know how you are still standing.
Thanks, Vivian! And standing, maybe, but definitely a bit behind schedule on certain things! Where is my full-time volunteer personal assistant when I need her?! 🙂
Congratulations, Susanna! This series is so clever and fun. I loves Daniel’s illustrations, too!
Thanks so much, Judy! I’m so glad you like it! And Daniel is amazing – just perfect for these stories!
Again, the art is fabulous. I’m really looking forward to this, Susanna. Happy New Year!
Thanks, David! Happy New Year to you too! Daniel is awesome – no doubt about that!
Congratulations! Another fun book for little ones. The art is wonderful!
Thanks, Pat, and I know! Isn’t Daniel amazing?! 🙂
Congrats! I love the sneak peek.
Well, if you can’t get a sneak peek here, where can you?! 🙂
Congratulations, Susanna! Looks so delightful! I know a couple little kids that will enjoy this! Can hardly wait to read it! 🙂
Thanks, Rene! I so appreciate your enthusiasm and support! ❤
Whoo, hoo to you!!!!! Joy, joy, joy!
Hope you received my pitch revision.
Thanks, Candy, and yes, I did!
This looks fun and adorable. I can see it being a big hit with my students at school. 😉 Thanks for sharing and wishing you all the best!
