New Erin Hunter series to be on the “Today Show”

On The Today Show last Friday, Al Roker chose Seekers: The Quest Begins by Erin Hunter (Harper-
Collins, May) as the ninth pick in his Al’s Book Club. Seekers is the first in a new six-book animal fantasy series, from the creators of the bestselling Warriors series. Al’s Book Club, which began a year ago, was originally intended as a summer reading club but was extended to a year-round program due to its popularity. Last week Roker won the first-ever Impact Award from the Children’s Book Council for his efforts in helping to promote reading. Victoria Holmes, one of the book’s three co-authors, will appear on Today sometime in June.
