Chicago Tribune: "Tiny Pie Hits the Spot"

Follow this link to a nice article on Tiny Pie from the Chicago Tribune:

http://www.chicagotribune.com/site/ct-prj-0609-tiny-pie-mark-bailey-michael-oatman-20130610,0,7872257.story

Here is an excerpt from that article:

"Tiny Pie" is a gorgeous children's book meant for kids ages 3-6, but it's the sort of book adults will smile over, too. It follows Ellie, a pint-sized elephant, as she stumbles into a hole in the kitchen wall where a colony of mice are televising a cooking show. The mice make Ellie a tiny apple pie.

Kids Love Bad Apple

Some adult reviewers have mentioned being a bit turned off by the worm/apple aspect of Bad Apple but luckily there are children to read children's books.

Check out this very charming piece on how at least some children react:

Ed Guest Blog on NY Metro Parents: Bully & Bad Apple

Excerpt:

Recently, while touring schools in the Midwest with my children’s book, “Bad Apple: A Tale of Friendship”, I was asked a great question by a rather serious first grader.

“Mr. Hemingway, were you ever bullied?” she wondered.

What’s so great about that question, you ask? And what self-respecting children’s book author can honestly answer such a question in front of 200 kids without revealing he’s a total dork deep down inside?

And wait a second, do I look like someone who was bullied as a kid?
The answer to that last question is, of course I look like someone who was bullied as a kid, because just about everyone has been bullied at some point in their childhood-No matter how tall and arguably charming they grow up to be. (And yes, 6 feet is still considered tall.)
And getting back to my original point, the first grader’s question is a great one because a first grader chose to ask it at all.

Art Show in Bozeman, MT

Ed's art show in Bozeman, Montana garnered this very nice review:

A mixture of opening your favorite book, standing in an intimate art gallery and settling in for a bowl of popcorn before a movie: “Tiny Pie,” by Edward Hemingway, is a show you need to experience.
