We found Aaron Reynolds and Neil Numberman buzzing around a manure pile and thought we should ask them some questions. Aaron is a human, not a bug, but he often writes about bugs. He is the author of Chicks and Salsa (one of our all time favorite chick books!), Superhero School, Buffalo Wings, and, of course, the Joey Fly, Private Eye graphic novels. Visit him at his website at http://aaron-reynolds.com/.Neil Numberman is a termite currently residing in New York City. Joey Fly, Private Eye is his first graphic novel, but he is also the author/illustrator of Do NOT Build a Frankenstein. Stop by his website at http://www.neilnumberman.com/.
Aaron and Neil have graciously agreed to hang around the coop all day, so if you have a question, swat--er, ask--away!
First act as Dictator for Life?
Aaron: Mandatory Friday night Fondue night!
Neil: Build Super Mario’s World!
What kids lit character would you like to vote off the island?
Neil: In keeping with the Harry Potter theme (because those characters are so well written) Dolores Umbridge! Man, I hated her!
What kids lit character would you share your last twinkie with?
Neil: Waldo! But first I gotta find him!
What TV family would you like to be adopted by?
Neil: Meerkat Manor!
Worst job in the universe?
Neil: Mr. Universe judge
Dream job for a day?
Neil: Jet-pack-wearing-water-balloon-tester
Marx Brothers or Three Stooges?
Aaron: Hate them both. Annoying. Submits Spongebob as third alternative.
Neil: Yeah, I’ll take Spongebob too! Not too familiar with the Marx, but no love for the Three Stooges
Clown V. Mime Deathmatch. Pick your winner.
Neil: Winner: Nobody
Funniest dead person you’d like to meet?
Aaron: Benjamin Franklin. He invents libraries, bifocals, and daylight savings time, all while rocking a mullet? Seemed like a pretty funny guy to me.
Neil: Jim Henson!
Best use for a book shaped object? (You know, one of those things sold as books but which should never ever have been published.)
Neil: Kindle
