Woah! OP here, first of all, thank you for all the memories and skills and laughs and friendship bracelets. How did you and the team decide what to "build" / "write" next? You really did seem to have every "kid essential" covered, but was there research or chatting with real-life kids? And what would you write today if you could make a new Klutz book?

If I could do a new Klutz book it would be something that was in the pipeline when I left that I was calling The Top 100 Facts of All Time. I still have a long file of candidates. The other day on Reddit there was a subreddit on stuff that seemed like fiction but wasn’t. The top entry was the Richard Parker story (Edgar Allen Poe is involved, check it out). I appreciated that because the Richard Parker story got me started on the whole idea many years ago.

Figured I'd provide a link to the reddit thread in case anyone else (like me) was interested:
