Battle of the Schools: How It Works

Hi everybody,

I got some questions about Battle of the Schools, so I'm answering them all here.

1) Weekly leaders are the schools in the lead for ONLY that week. The top school for that week wins the books.

2) The grand prize winner is the school that enters the most over ALL the weeks combined.

4) The more peo… Continue

Book Trailer LIVE

Hey you guys!

Long time no talk. Fang says he's a man of few words. Yeah, well, you wouldn't be flapping your lips (or fingers, I suppose) much if you were me right now. ANYWAY.

There is exciting news afoot. The trailer for our new book is up and live. You're psyched. I'm psyched. I think they did a really good job of showing how we fly. Though, my hair totally looks darker than it is in real life. ANYWAY. Am I talking about my hair? Who AM I?

Under the sea

Hey there everybody, As I'm sure you all recall, the flock spent a some time recently in the great depths of the ocean. It's impossible to describe exactly what it's like to be down there--exciting and sorta creepy. (When you're fighting sinister forces like we had to, it's even more creepy, of course.) I just found this thing on National Geographic where you can swim down into the darkest parts of the water and find the crazy creatures that live down there and learn a bit about them. It's, uh,… Continue

Hey everyone, So, this petition came to my attention. I'm not giving my opinion 'cause well...I'm secretive like that. But, anyway, I think it's cool that you guys are so passionate.

Back to the Ice Future

Hi everybody, It's not the same pole on the Earth where the Flock went a while back, but this UK photographer named Nick Cobbing takes a lot of amazing pictures of the Arctic.

The Movie News You've All Been Waiting For

Hey there everybody, Okay. Crazy times! I don't want to spoil things if you haven't read the new book yet, BUT you probably know that there's a certain someone making things sort of heaven-like for me right now.
