So, this just happened on Twitter.
Writer Jeff Kinney, the author of the wildly popular Wimpy Kid books, tweeted that he was in New York, drawing pictures for people that passed him by.
I'm out here at the intersection of 34th and 5th in NY drawing pictures for whoever comes by! pic.twitter.com/uyAllNqjP1

My son loves his books (reads them in Icelandic) so I decided to take a chance.
My son is a huge fan, but we live in Iceland. Draw one that says "Hi Atli Valur" and show me a photo of it, please?

And then the magic happened.

My son is sleeping now, but tomorrow I’m printing this out and framing for him. This will not diminish his affinity for reading Mr. Kinney’s books.
Have kids? Buy them Kinney’s books. He’s clearly a nice guy.
