My publisher has announced all of the tour stops for my 2008 GINGERBREAD FRIENDS tour.  I'll be visiting cities and towns in Massachusetts, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Nebraska, New Jersey, Iowa, North Carolina, Alabama, North Dakota, South Dakota,
Texas, Mississippi, Wisconsin, and Minnesota.  If you live nearby, I hope that you can come.   I'd love to meet you.  The link to all of the tour cities is on this page.
      The Lunch on the Bus Contest has started.   Chose the city where you and three friends would like to join Jan Brett for lunch on the 2008 GINGERBREAD FRIENDS tour.  Then add your name and email address to be included in the drawing.  The link to the new contest is on this page.
      Download and printout a date wall calendar for next school year and get a preview of my new fall book GINGERBREAD FRIENDS.   The links to all of my calendars are in the Activities Pages link on this page.
      New this week is an interactive Gingerbread Baby that you can design and create yourself.   The link to the new page is in the Design your Own section of this page.
      Print a calendar for the 2008-2009 school year using seven months of my 2008 calendar and the first six months of my 2009 calendar.   It's easy!  Just download the artwork pages and the monthly grids.  Tape each month's artwork and grid together, trim the edges, and either tape or spiral bind the top.  The links to all of my calendars are in the Calendars section of my Activities Pages.
