The deal was brokered through an auction by Judith Hansen of the Hansen Literary Agency. Ginee Seo Books, an imprint of Atheneum/Simon & Schuster Children’s Publishing, today announced it has acquired the world rights to Jimmy Gownley’s popular comic and graphic novel series AMELIA RULES!. In his heartwarmingly hilarious eighth volume of the acclaimed Amelia Rules! series, Jimmy Gownley takes us on Amelia’s most thrilling adventure yet-and back again.While the gold rush of comics to mainstream book publishers seems to have slowed a bit (there were very few announcements or rumors at SPX, aside from Raina Telgemeier’s SMILE deal with Scholastic) it isn’t all over: Jimmy Gownley’s AMELIA RULES is getting the book treatment.
And when she boards a bus on an epic journey to find Tanner-with frenemy Rhonda in tow, and a little help from a certain boy she never thought she’d see again-it quickly becomes clear that if Amelia has learned anything in her eleven years, it’s that life is never through with surprises. Then Tanner disappears, humiliated by an ex-boyfriend’s tell-all book, sending Amelia into full panic mode. But with her new spot on the cheerleading squad, Aunt Tanner’s hordes of adoring fans, and Reggie’s successful mission to mold young superheroes into productive-and cool-members of society, Amelia’s sailing seems remarkably smooth.
Amelia embarks on her most epic adventure yet in this final addition to the Amelia Rules! graphic novel series.įrom surviving her parents’ divorce, to withstanding the terror of Joe McCarthy Elementary, to handling devastating crushes (not-so-)gracefully, Amelia Louise McBride has weathered her share of storms.
