President Doti Draft
President Doti's sketch of his childhood neighborhood in Chicago helped illustrator Lisa Mertins portray the Little Italy setting of the president's newest book.

What’s the next adventure for Jimmy? Check in with President Doti’s blog to find out

President Jim Doti has another children’s tale in the works, but you don’t have to wait for the publication party to grab a sneak peek. Visit the president’s blog, Creating a Children’s Book, and vicariously enjoy the creative process, including posts from illustrator Lisa Mertins.

The new book is titled An Adventure on Stage:  How Jimmy Finds His Voice and is an autobiographical story about the president’s experience dealing with a childhood speech impediment. And if you loved little Jimmy’s spunky canine companion in A Christmas Adventure in Little Italy, you’ll be happy to know that Blackie is back, too.
