TODAY Show Picks WONDLA
On this morning’s TODAY show, Al Roker revealed that the next choice for his “Al’s Book Club” segment was none other than The Search for WondLa! To say that I am stunned, excited, over-the-moon and thrilled would be an understatement. Wow.
The segment is tentatively schedule to air next month. I’ll post a firm date once it is confirmed. I’d like thank all my fans and the folks at Simon & Schuster for the groundswell of support for this story…okay, time to start losing those holiday lbs for my close-up.




Congratulations! I’m not sure how many kids watch the Today Show, but I hope this gets WondLa into the minds and hands of plenty of teachers and parents. What a fantastic bit of news! : )
Fantastic! I was watching the Today show when they announced “The Search for Wondla” as Al’s Book Group pick. I look forward to this segment! Yipppppppeeeee!
Thank you , Janice! Its so nice to hear from you:)
Mr. DiTerlizzi,
Congratulations!!! You totally deserve it! Your book is amazing, and I hope that through the Today Show segment other kids can hear about it and read it! I can’t wait to see it too!!
In October, I noticed The Search for Wondla at my library on the new books section, and thought it sounded good. Wow, was I in for a suprise!! It wasn’t just good, it’s now my favorite book!!! I LOVED it! I recently bought my own copy of Wondla (it had your signature in it!), and am looking forward to the second book! Well, extremely looking forward to it!
You have inspired me so much! I hope that I can become as awesome of a writer as you someday! Thanks!!

I got the book for my granddaughter who would not take time to read. Once she started this book, she has a hard time putting it down. Thank you.
