Coming on April 12th... JACOB WONDERBAR FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNIVERSE!!
(And yes, that's a space monkey in the top right corner)
Presidential campaigns are all fun and games until someone threatens to blow up your home planet
When Jacob Wonderbar receives a message that he's been nominated for
President of the Universe, he, Sarah Daisy, and Dexter immediately
return to space. But Jacob's archnemesis, Prince Mick Cracken, is
running as well, and his campaign tactics involve kidnappings and rogue
space monkeys.After surviving corndog-eating contests and insult debates, Jacob discovers the stakes for this election are even higher than he imagined: A military group wants to destroy Planet Earth, and the President of the Universe is the only person who can stop them. Hold on to your space helmet!
I'm so grateful to Christopher S. Jennings for his amazing illustrations and Greg Stadnyk for the cover design.

OMG. I could drown in the awesome. Is that a MONKEY at the upper right corner?
Wow, Nathan. It looks so amazing! Congratulations.
Power tie.
This cover is fantastic :-) I love covers like this over stock photography.
I love the Jacob Wonderbar font. It's a ridiculous notion, but I can't help but judge covers by their font.
Hilarious Fun...Your posts and progress brighten the day of sooo many writers. Congratulations on being so clever! ;D
I love it. And the title too.
Wait...what do you do after kapowing the universe? (Hint: It's not Disneyland)Run for president! =)
Looks great!
The cover looks great, Nathan! And I love the title - it sounds like a really fun read. (And so appropriate for the times!)
sheer awesomeness. :)
Congratulations! Love the cover!
I especially like the guy in gray who doesn't know what to think about et all.
Oh yes, and the space monkey =)
Cheers!..to some major success.
So excited to see what adventures zap the crew in Wonderbar II!
Wow. That is a perfect cover for kids. Chris Jennings is very talented and has just the right touch for MG.
Congratulations! This is very exciting. Can't wait to read your books, Nathan!
Awesome cover, Nathan. Congratulations!
Wow, that is one awesome cover! Love the power tie. And the monkey. Gotta love space monkees.
Congrats!
Very cool! Congrats.
Congratulations! LOVE the cover and the space monkey!
Congratulations! I feel like I know exactly the tone of the book from seeing the cover. Would that all covers worked so well!
Is he still running on the corndog ticket, or did he change his platform to quantum bananas to increase popularity with the space monkeys?
Looks like you got a great illustrator, Nathan. Congrats.
Hooray for space monkeys!
Translation: 'Tis a wonderful cover, Nathan.
Congrats,that's a perfect cover. Doesn't every young boy want to be president of the universe?
Makes me wonder what's left for Jacob to conquer after that? (hope he doesn't go for an empire next. . . a la Star Wars)
Best wishes for your success as an author, Nathan.
Awesome!!
Very cool, congrats Nathan!
Monkey!
Love the cover. This is the first I'd heard of your sequel. Congrats!
Congrats, Nathan! This looks like a great read! (Already looking forward to snuggling up with my grandchildren over it, showing them what wonderful worlds the written word can create) Forgive the alliteration.
Wow! I love forward thought. I only wanted to be Queen of the World
How wonderful for you! How long have you known?
Just curious, Nathan...with all you know about electronic publishing, why you didn't do this book "yourself" rather than wait for it to debut a year from now?
Josin: Is it bad of me to say that I'd totally vote for a guy running on the Corndog Ticket?
Cool! Congratulations!
What a fun cover! Very nice. Congrats on book 2.
Rebecca-
Lots of reasons, but I'll plan to blog about that at some point.
Congrats, it looks fun - though I wunder, is the universe ready for a German president?
Congrats. :D
It is a great cover!
Great cover! Congrats!
So cool! I also love the unenthusiastic guy in grey!
Looks awesome! I was thinking the same thing as Rebecca. Going to be a long wait to hit shelves, but you know what they say...good things come to those who waitress.
I can't believe you have a space monkey on the cover of your book...you really can't get much cooler than that. Congrats--it's awesome!
LOL despite being what I think is way too old to read these books and having no kids, I'm going to buy them just out of principle. Good job Nathan and your cover artist rocks.
President of the universe has always been my dream. Excellent work my friend.
Awesome cover. I'm waiting for the first one to come out so I can read it.
Oh cool. Anything with space monkeys is definitely worthy.
So. Awesome. :) Can't wait for #1!
Congrats, Nathan! The cover looks terrific. Of course, anything involving a space monkey gets my vote. :-)
love the cover and title!! I can't wait for Jacob Wonderbar #1. :)
Congratulations!
The experience of seeing a new cover never gets old. :-)
Nathan,
Can't wait to get the book for my grandson, he's 4.
Congratulations!
Hugs,

Okay. Because I like you I'll withdraw my candidate, Richard Moberly, the hero of my soon-to-be-epublished "Mouse Hole." I'll nominate him for president of the parallel universe instead. Good going!
Awesome. Jacob has my vote :)
Completely awesome, Nathan! Congrats! I have a nephew in mind for this!
Congratulations! Wonderful cover. So glad you were able to work in a space monkey! Made me laugh! :D
Yippee!
What a FUN cover! Congrats :)
Congratulations!! So excited there's a monkey!
Congratulations, Nathan!
Welcome to the universe, Jacob Wonderbar book two!
OMG he's gonna try to unseat Zaphod!!! Wonderbar in 2012!
:~D
I dunno people, I hear there's already a controversy about hanging chads in Alpha Centauri, and allegations that Jacob was really born in an alternate Universe.
Congrats, Nathan! Can't wait to check both of them out!
"(And yes, that's a space monkey in the top right corner)"
And the circle is complete.
Great new cover Nathan!
How exciting! I just pre-ordered Jacob Wonderbar and the Cosmic Space Kapow for my youngest!
Congrats!!
So this story has everything even SPACE MONKEYS? There's something rather Nathan Bransford about Jacob Wonderbar.
Adam Heine: LOL!
Congratulations!
I love it!
Yes Wendy. Nathan Bransford for President of the Universe!
Congrats on number two! I love love love the cover art. And cant wait to read number one!
Congratulations, Nathan!
I'd vote for Mick Cracken as President of the Universe. I just like that guy for some reason.
That's really cute and I'll be getting both books for my Kindle Fire.
Writers helping writers.
Awesome! Congrats, Nathan!
Congrats, Nathan! Will you be doing any Bay Area readings? I can't find events listed on your website or the book's FB page.
Meghan
Yep, 4/13 Books Inc. Opera Plaza. I'll be doing invites/announcements soon!
Congratulations, Nathan! Just in time for Jacob Wonderbar to set out on his own Presidential campaign trail. :)
Oh how wonderful! You have the best cover artist ever - perfect.
I've already pre-ordered it - I can't wait to read it.
Major congratuations, Nathan! :)
Whoa. I think Jacob Wonderbar really did break the universe. Not only did I find my comment from today in this thread, I also found my comment dated 2011...and then discovered lots of comments from 2011. Is the universe broken? Are we in two dimensions of time at once? Apparently, your book has superpowers. :)
You had me at rogue space monkeys--congrats!
Congrats man.
Writing posts for this blog seems like it would be a full time job. Don't know how you managed another novel and have a day job. Oh yeah...I don't think you have kids!
Congrats, Nathan, but I'm confused why some of those dates on the comments show 2011?
Blogger problem?
Best of luck with 'President of the Universe', hope Jacob's platform is better than most politicians.
Oh - sorry for the confusion, this is an old post I updated with new info and republished.
Thanks for the explanation, Nathan. I thought maybe Jacob had caused a time travel problem. Hmm.
Congrats Nathan! It's gotta feel great to see this one come to life.
Wow - so exciting! Congratulations, Nathan. Could there be Jacob Wonderbar the animated movie coming our way soon? And why not? Kids love this story with its brilliant and original mix of fantasy, humour and loveable characters.
I just told my daughter, and she's pretty excited!
This is so cool! You are my inspiration, Nathan Bransford. I just published my first novel on Kindle and I hope I have absorbed your blogger/author/agent wisdom well enough to make it a decent read!
