Company's Coming by David Small

On the day Shirley had invited all of her relatives to dinner and Moe, her husband, was pleasantly tinkering in the yard, a flying saucer quietly landed next to their toolshed. Shirley and Moe. Just a regular couple from Bellmore. Today, all they are expecting is a nice, quiet dinner with a few cousins. But what do they get? Spacemen! From outer space! They don't know it yet, but with a touch of human (and alien) kindness and a heaping bowl of spaghetti and meatballs, the galaxy is about to get a little bit smaller.

Arthur Yorinks is the author of nearly thirty-five acclaimed and award-winning books, including Hey, Al, a children's book that won the Caldecott Medal in 1987. He has also written and directed for opera, theater, dance, film, and radio. Yorinks began studying classical piano at the age of six with former Juilliard professor Robert Bedford. Yorinks began writing and working in the performing arts at the age of 17, diverting away from a possible career as a classical pianist. Yorinks worked as the librettist for Philip Glass' operas The Juniper Tree and The Fall of the House of Usher. He has collaborated with numerous well-known artists over the course of his forty-year career in picture books, including Maurice Sendak, William Steig, Mort Drucker, David Small, and Richard Egielski.

Mommy, what's the title of his book? Yorinks is still writing and directing in New York City.
