Oliver Jeffers writes: "For all you folks stuck at home in the coming weeks. from Monday, at 1pm CST, I will be reading one of my books every weekday, and talking about some of the things that went into making it. We are all at home, but none of us are alone. Let’s be bored together. Also, my pal, and one of the best storybook writers in a generation @macbarnett will be doing the same with his books, an hour later."
