TODD'S TV
Todd's TV is a book coming out in spring 2010. The publisher is HarperCollins.
Recently the magnificent Elizabeth Bird said this about Todd's TV in her blog at the School Library Journal where she sometimes previews upcoming books: "Okay. Without a doubt the picture book I was most excited about at this particular table was Todd's TV by James Proimos. I will endeavor to explain. Over at Little Brown & Co., Mr. Proimos wrote a little something by the name of Paulie Pastrami Achieves World Peace. It was cute and it was funny (and made a nice complement to another 2009 called Weezer Changes the World by David McPhail) but I think I'm even more pleased by this newest book.Todd's TV is about a boy who watches so much TV that the television itself decides to legally adopt the boy. As you might expect, the parents (who were fine with this arrangement until now) are not pleased. It has a kicker of an ending and a palette of orange and gray that shouldn't work, but does. Pretty darn cool."
We are currently developing Todd's TV as CG film.
