Know of any authors who won the Nobel for children’s stories?
Argythree over 1 year ago
So far, Nobel committee hasn’t looked at those who write for children. No idea why…

In the sequel, the cat sues the ‘author’ over her stealing the idea.

Today Opal is a prize. (She’s “always” been the prize for Earl.)

“I wrote”…with a lot of help from Muffin!
iggyman over 1 year ago
I heard of “Do you know the Muffin-Man”, maybe Muffin wrote it!

We have a cat hanging around a local cemetery who everyone feeds and it’s name is Muffin!

Credit where due, at least Opal understands that hyperbole can’t be permitted to run amok.

Still waiting for my Nobel for my last book. The one I made out of mashed potatoes wilted and solidified after a few weeks.

Maybe that’s how Henry Kissinger won.

There are kids who still read real books? I find that very heartening to know. 8>)

It takes a village to raise one child and one cat to give an idea to Opal! LOL

Good thinking, Opal. Save something for the sequel.

Far-fetched? But cats don’t fetch!

I’d say a cat writing a book is about as far-fetched as it gets.

Shouldn’t Muffin have won the Caldecatt Award? https://www.ala.org/alsc/awardsgrants/bookmedia/caldecott

Who drew all the pictures, dear? What age range is it’s intended audience? The Publisher will want a Venn diagram, my sweet.
