It probably won't make much a difference in popularity for the Redwall series.

It's not about an increase in popularity. It's about exposure.

And because the Prez and his fam bought those books, Redwall received a lots of news coverage.

And maybe now, because someone read an article, they bought Redwall for THEIR kids. Or themselves.

And MAYBE at least one person who reads the books grows to love 'em as much as we do.

I don't see how anyone can argue against that being a positive.

Well said, TBT!

It's always nice to see the books are still being bought and enjoyed!

Don't think they're in publication over here at the mo - not in shops, anywho.

Now that's cool that Redwall has found its way into the White House. And, as unlikely as it will be, if they led anyone there to these forums...

We need to prepare a feast if they ever come to Redwall!, eh, wot! But then the abbot might have to talk to him about some (or quite a few) things... *ahem* *ahem*

Yea, like discussing the possibility of a scale-sized version of Redwall Abbey! And maybe Salamandastron, and just all of Mossflower...

Indeed.

Inde- Hey, you stole my line!

Indeed...

Yeah, that's awesome.

If Obama enjoys the books he bought bought maybe he will buy the rest of the series and there could even be a movie made from the books!!

Hickory · January 09, 2015, 10:02:42 PM

*raises eyebrow* an animated movie?

Cluny the Scourge · January 09, 2015, 10:34:20 PM

Possibly

Redwall is currently being optioned for a movie. The President will have no effect on it.

Nice! So you would say this one is totally legit, aye?

I hope this project goes underway!

The Skarzs · January 15, 2015, 09:11:21 PM

There's a whole topic on that; it's been optioned for film, but it's going to be a while before we get any more definite answers.
