Geek Dad to be Published in the Czech Republic!

Pretty amazing, really! I received news yesterday that a publisher in the Czech Republic has offered (and we accepted) to purchase the rights to publish Geek Dad: Awesomely Geeky Projects and Activities for Dads and Kids to Share. I’m chuffed! This is the 5th non-American language the book is being translated into. Though I do have to worry a bit. A quick Google Translate shows that “Dad” in Czech is “Tata.” Ahem…

I follow BoingBoing.net religiously, as they are a purveyor of all things cool, underground, Make-y, and more. So how delighted was I to see this image in a recent post by Mark Frauenfelder, relaying a report from Bob Knetzger about his discovery of a very Maker-friendly section of one of Powell’s bookstores in Portland? If you look closely, on the first row of the bookshelf under the line of Make Magazines, you can very clearly see a couple of my Geek Dad books! Time to do the geek dance!
