Book Description
This comedy by the author of Moonchildren and Loose Ends is a hilarious satire of megalomania in the New York theatre. A struggling playwright is estatic when his play is chosen to be produced at the People's Playhouse, a major Off Broadway theatre run by egomaniacal Arthur Dick. Dick's resident playwright has exited with his newest play and a replacement is needed fast. The movie star cast in the starring role is too old and comes with the requisite girlfriend who is long on looks and short on acting ability. Rehearsals are chaos and the playwright walks out; the work no longer resembles what he wrote. The show is a hit; predictably the critics praise the star but damn the playwright who, nonetheless, finds himself trapped in Dick's web and slated to write his next project: a new musical for a famous rock star.

Book Description
A picture book biography of the remarkable folk artist Clementine Hunter. Can you imagine being an artist who isn't allowed into your own show? That's what happened to folk artist Clementine Hunter. Her paintings went from hanging on her clothesline to hanging in museums, yet because of the color of her skin, a friend had to sneak her in when the gallery was closed. With lyrical writing and striking illustrations, this picture book biography introduces kids to a self-taught artist whose paintings captured scenes of backbreaking work and joyous celebrations of southern farm life. They preserve a part of American history we rarely see and prove that art can help keep the spirit alive.
