Overlap

There is overlap in the "Children's Books" and "Picture Books" sections. Should the two lists be combined? Madnova777 00:53, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Java Jack authorship

I did a bit of research on this, as I'd never heard of this book. Here is what Daniel Pinkwater himself had to say about it:

"It should be noted that although I am credited as co-author, I was more of an editor extraordinary in the making of Java Jack, and have no idea what it's supposed to be about." [1]

"Java Jack is not really co-authored by me...I was a sort of super-editor/rewrite man on that strange and in a way unpleasant book. Favor for a friend." [2]

"Java Jack isn't so much co-authored as super-edited by me." [3]

"Java Jack is not really a book by me. It is by the other guy--I was like a super-editor with a very free hand. I don't care for the book very much, so it can stay hidden as far as I'm concerned." [4]

Thus, I've removed it from his bibliography. Wingman4l7 (talk) 03:08, 20 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bear in Love

I found Bear in Love (2012) at Amazon -- shouldn't it be here? Rissa, Guild of Copy Editors (talk) 04:18, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Escape to Dwerg Mountain?

I recently finished Adventures of a Cat-Whiskered Girl and assumed the sequel Escape to Dwerg Mountain mentioned at the end was meant as a joke, because it says "soon to be available t the Gleybners' bookstore, in Poughkeepsie, New York". Is there any other evidence that Daniel Pinkwater is planning a sequel? (I'll be glad if he does.) AdamFunk (talk) 09:23, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
