The Wonderling by Mira Bartók
Mira Bartók: It was a
confluence of things coming together at the same time: a random sketch I did of
a one-eared creature while listening to Dickens audio books, thinking a lot
about the history of wonder after trying unsuccessfully to write a non-fiction
book for adults on the subject, and thinking about the refugee crisis which was
constantly going on in the background. And then, of course, there was my little
dog Sadie who looks a lot like Arthur/Number 13 who is always an inspiration, and
then, there were those dreams I always have about strange creatures who talk to
me....
I am excited The Wonderling movie is
currently in development. What’s the best way for your fans to follow updates
about the movie?
Mira Bartók: The best
way to find out more about the movie is to visit my News section on my website.
Please finish these sentence starters:
Reading is how I start and end every day, seven days a week. It reminds me that I am never alone in the world, and that no matter what, there is always hope and wonder.
School libraries are our sanctuaries.
Mr. Schu, you should have asked me about my fondness
for dancing in elevators and trying not to get caught when the doors open. :-)
Borrow The Wonderling from your school or public library. Whenever possible, please support independent bookshops.
