Mo Willems Talks To Children – And Us (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

Mo Willems writes and illustrates the children’s books that make everybody laugh. Kids and adults. They’re not funny in a cheap way. They’re funny in a deep way. Or a way that makes you think. Makes you recognize our foibles. And laugh. Their names are gently funny. "Elephant and Piggie." "Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus." "Knuffle Bunny." (Yes, he says ka-nuffle.) This hour On Point, hero of the bedtime, bath-time, naptime read, Mo Willems. — Tom Ashbrook
