Perfect Picture Book Match

I was reading Publisher's Weekly this morning and discovered this news: Neil Gaiman has signed a deal with HarperCollins for more books, including two picture books. One of the picture books is about a little panda and it will be illustrated by Adam Rex!

Anyone else think this is the most perfect picture book match up?? I love Adam Rex's art and Neil Gaiman's writing and together in one book will be amazing I'm sure!

The deal also includes three new middle grade novels which I couldn't be more excited about! I love book news-it makes my day! :)
