Listen Up!
Excited to announce that an audiobook of Two Friends, One Dog, and a Very Unusual Week is now available! I must be honest and say I have not yet listened. I’m a little nervous to do so….I have a very clear voice for Rani and Emily in my head, and it’s always disconcerting when a narrator (however talented) diverges from what I’ve been hearing for years.
But I will dive in soon and listen and appreciate…and I invite all of you to do so as well!
Oldest Ever
In doing some research for the upcoming Save the…Turtles! I have discovered that the oldest living land animal is a Seychelles giant tortoise named Jonathan, estimated to be 190 years old and with a decent chance of making it to his second century.
My editor, naturally, wanted to know if there were any marine animals that are as old or older. Yes. Including one Quahog clam who is 500.
I cannot imagine anything more boring than being a clam for 500 years.
