From GalleyCat:
For the BACA uninitiated.The Help star Octavia Spencer inked a book deal with Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers. Spencer’s debut novel, Randi Rhodes, Ninja Detective: The Case of the Time-Capsule Bandit, is scheduled for release in fall 2013.


My favorite part of that BACA link is the furious comment from the person belonging to Bikers Against Child Abuse.
I totally want a BACA button. But can John Lithgow have a -CA exemption b/c of the manatee book? It's good! OK, the Harvardian mouse, not so much, but come on, "undulating underneath the sea" and "no difference between my face and fannatee"? COME ON.

Oh, I think it's generally agreed that Lithgow gets a pass. And Julie Andrews.
BUT NOT JERRY SEINFELD.

Ninja Detective sounds pretty fun, though.
