This September marks a major publishing event with the release of The Purloining of Price Oleomargarine—a never-before-published, unfinished children’s story by Mark Twain, completed and brought to life by Philip and Erin Stead. Join the author and illustrator of Caldecott Medal-winner A Sick Day for Amos McGee in conversation with their editor, Frances Gilbert, associate publishing director for Random House Books for Young Readers, as they discuss their work on this project by America's most legendary writer, from discovery to the process of adapting and finishing Twain’s story in words and illustrations.
