Nim's Island socks!

I just spotted these very fun socks that someone's been knitting - and I love that she named them for Nim!

Movieguide Best Family Film Award

What a thrill to hear that Nim's Island has been nominated for the "Best Movie for Family Audiences" at the upcoming MOVIEGUIDE Awards on February 11th!

I see that Nemo won it a few years ago, so we're in good company – I've got fingers crossed, though whatever happens, it's always very nice to simply be recognized with a nomination.

Here are all the Nim's Island covers to date - or at least to date as far as the ones I've received: there are still quite a few to come, and I'm not sure whether they haven't been published yet, or if the publishers just haven't sent out the author copies yet.

I was hoping I could insert the whole display here, but I don't seem to be able to.

always nice to read things like this...

"BEST FAMILY MOVIE

Holly: “Nim’s Island” — Little Miss Sunshine’s still got spunk. In her trifecta of movies this year (“Definitely, Maybe,” “Nim’s Island” and “Kit Kittredge”), Abigail Breslin pulled out her strongest performance as Nim, in this imaginative family adventure movie."
