Hinton for  a series of titles, including both adaptations of her bestselling novels and a new title that Hinton will create for Bluewater.  The first Bluewater release based on a Hinton work will be Taming of the Star Runner next spring.  An adaptation of Hinton’s children’s book The Puppy Sister and the new title Hinton is creating will be released next summer.
