The creators of The Lonely Phone Booth and The Lonely Typewriter are at it again in their new children's book The Screaming Chef. Witty text and clever illustrations combine to create a silly yet serious picture book for readers of all ages which teaches that you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar, especially when you're singing.

 

This book was published 2018 by David R. Godine Publisher Inc .

Peter Ackerman has made two books with Max Dalton. Their first book, The Lonely Phone Booth, was selected for the Smithsonian's 2010 Notable Books for Children and adapted and produced as a musical at the Manhattan Children's Theater. Peter co-wrote the movies Ice Age and Ice Age 3. Currently he is a writer on the TV show The Americans, and his web-series The Go Getters can be seen on www. thegogetters. net. Max Dalton lives in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and has been drawing since he was two or three years old. Max has too many interests to list here from writing to painting to playing music and reading about animals but his all-time favorite is drawing. He is the illustrator of The Lonely Phone Booth, The Lonely Typewriter, and Extreme Opposites.
