Climb you forever: Robert Munsch’s arborial fitness program

Long-reigning kidlit champ Robert Munsch has taken up a new hobby to fill the three or four weeks between releases of new books of his. According to The Globe and Mail, Munsch’s current exercise regimen consists of “bicycling around his neighbourhood and the City of Guelph. Daily hour-long walks with his two dogs. Climbing big white pine trees on the walk.”

Munsch was orginally intending to build an office/tree fort up there, but those plans were quashed when it was discovered that illustrator Michael Martchenko is afraid of heights. Plus, he would have had to eat a gross worm to gain entry.
