The Book Show #1363 - Nora Krug and Harry Bliss

 

   On this week’s Book Show we’ll meet the two recipients of this year’s Maurice Sendak Fellowship - established as a residency program for artists who tell stories with illustration.

Harry Bliss is a New Yorker cartoonist and cover artist for the magazine. Nora Krug is the illustrator of the children’s book, My Cold Went on Vacation.

This episode of The Book Show was recorded at Battenkill Books in Cambridge, NY.

Joe talks to people on the radio for a living. In addition to countless impressive human "gets" - he has talked to a lot of Muppets. Joe grew up in Philadelphia, has been on the area airwaves for more than 25 years and currently lives in Washington County, NY with his wife, Kelly, and their dog, Brady. And yes, he reads every single book.
