Ben Hatke is actually my friend and neighbor and I think I can supply some of the answers to the mystery here. Years ago I think he was approached by an editor who wanted to do an illustrated version of Cap O'Rushes, and so he made up a proposal for her, but she couldn't get approval for it, so he just posted the sketches online and went on to other projects. But I, like you, hope he'll do a book on it someday. <br />Ben's been busy putting out some new books - the 3rd Zita the Spacegirl (which is AWESOME), and a picture book called Julia's House for Lost Creatures, and the upcoming Little Robot. His new book is on goblins. But I hope he'll do Cap O'Rushes someday. Drop a hint to an editor you know! regina domanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09288814405434899287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934170279470612782.post-12847476679632745212015-01-30T13:07:07.682-06:002015-01-30T13:07:07.682-06:00Hey Heidi!
