Madame Poule and Monsieur Roach, A New Orleans Folktale
Friends:
Happy Happy Joy Joy! Today, I received 2 book contracts in the mail, one I was expecting and one that was a delightful surprise. I received a new book contract from Libraries Unlimited for Stories on Board: Creating Board Games from Favorite Tales and a new picture book with Pelican Publishing Company, Madame Poule & Monsieur Roach. The illustrations for the picture book will be done by Marita Gentry, illustrator of The Cajun Cornbread Boy.
So yes, today was a great day. Jumping up and down, up and down, up and down. And I’m not even dizzy yet! LOL 
Happy Tales to You! Until next time…
Warmly, Dianne
