Here for your enjoyment is the cover art for Will Sparrow’s Road, due out in fall 2012. I think it’s quite wonderful and hope all you readers are intrigued enough to watch for the book. Will Sparrow, liar and thief, is running away—from the father who sold him for beer, from the innkeeper who threatened to sell him as a chimney sweep, from his whole sorry life. Barefoot and penniless, without family or friends, Will is determined to avoid capture. “I care for no one but myself and nothing but my belly,” he says over and over. Will he ever find supper, boots, someone to trust, and a reason to stop running?

This sounds brilliant – and the cover is great. I’m so eager to read . . .
My favorite character is the pig, who is based on neighborhood swine named Jillian and Mitchell.
