Laura Amy Schlitz and Brian Floca have signed a deal with Candlewick Press. The two will collaborate on a new children’s book entitled Princess Cora and The Crocodile.
Schlitz will write the story and Floca will create the illustrations. The release date has been set for March 28, 2017.
According to the press release, “the comical story traces the plight of poor Princess Cora, who is sick of boring lessons. She’s sick of running in circles around the dungeon gym. She’s sick, sick, sick of taking three baths a day. And her parents won’t let her have a dog. But when she writes to her fairy godmother for help, she doesn’t expect that help to come in the form of a crocodile—a crocodile who does not behave properly.”
