Publishing: Giving Birth to a Brand-New Book About Babies
Look for BOBBI AND KENNY MCCAUGHEY's forthcoming book at a superstore near you, sandwiched between The Bobbsey Twins and Cheaper by the Dozen. The parents of the Iowa septuplets are shopping around a book proposal to trade and Christian publishers. Explains their literary agent, Wes Yoder: "We're looking for a publisher that can deliver a book around the world." Yoder says there are "two streams of thought" about the best pub date: either the babies' first birthday, Nov. 19, 1998, or Mother's Day 1999. Says mother Bobbi of her first book: "We hope it will offer something that could strengthen one's spiritual life and give a person a laugh or two." Or maybe even seven.
