The star of "Jon & Kate Plus 8" is in the middle of a painfully public divorce from husband Jon Gosselin.

Suddenly, the book jacket promise -- "an inside look at one of America's most close-knit families" -- doesn't have the same ring it used to.

The book features Kate's recipes, tips on eating organically and "meaningful mealtime blessings," according the publisher's site.

The "Lady" series, the first of which will be unveiled at the end of July by Knopf Books for Young Readers, centers on a mild-mannered school cafeteria server who secretly dishes out helpings of justice as she and her assistant investigate wrongdoings. The books also feature three kids who try to figure out her double life.

The titles include "Lunch Lady and the League of Librarians" and "Lunch Lady and the Cyborg Substitute," both of which are due this summer. "Lunch Lady and the Author Visit Vendetta" is scheduled to be released in December and "Lunch Lady and the Summer Camp Shakedown" is set for summer 2010.

Krosoczka, repped by Writers House and Gotham, is the author-illustrator of books "Punk Farm" and "Max for President."

Luxury and art have never been more closely linked than they are in these early years of the twenty-first century. Virtually all the world's major luxury houses have associated themselves with contemporary art through sponsorships, commissions, or foundations, and these points of exchange nourish the increasingly symbiotic relationship between fashion, art, and other design disciplines. Of all modern luxury brands, Louis Vuitton can claim to maintain the richest and most varied associations with the world of art. Included in this volume are Louis Vuitton's important collaborations with an elite group of artists, architects, designers, and photographers, such as Jun Aoki, Shigeru Ban, Vanessa Beecroft, Olafur Eliasson, Zaha Hadid, David LaChapelle, Jean Larivière, Annie Leibovitz, Takashi Murakami, Richard Prince, Stephen Sprouse, James Turrell, Inez Van Lamsweerde, and Vinoodh Matadin. The book is structured as a seductive anthology of the house's most visible collaborations. Critical essays examine and position Louis Vuitton's patronage-under the guidance of Artistic Director Marc Jacobs-during one of the most fertile periods of contemporary art and design.

Almost two-thirds of children want their parents to spend more time reading to them before bed, and most prefer Mum's storytelling to Dad's, researchers said on Friday. They conducted a study that showed younger children aged 3-4 were most hungry for more stories, with over three-quarters saying they wished their parents read to them more often. More than half of all children aged 3-8 said story time was their favorite pastime with their parents.

"The results of our research confirm the traditional activity of storytelling continues to be a powerful learning and emotional resource in children's lives," said child psychologist Richard Woolfson, who led the study commissioned by Disney/Pixar World of Cars. Storytelling ranked higher than television or video games among pastimes for kids, and 82 percent said reading a story with their parents helped them sleep better, according the survey of 500 children aged 3-8 in Britain. The best storytellers were mothers who used funny voices to illustrate different characters or made their own special sound effects to keep the story moving, researchers said.

But what would the angels be without someone to guide them? Enter Tim Gunn of "Project Runway." In the debut issue's second story, Mr. Gunn becomes an action figure - jumping into Iron Man's suit of armor to save a fashion exhibition from evildoers.

It's certainly a departure from Mr. Gunn's usual role as a mentor to aspiring designers, but there is a connection. Mr. Gunn said he remembered comic books with Millicent, who first appeared in 1945. She was a comic romantic figure, who worked as a model for the Hanover agency.

Mr. Gunn will grace one version of the first cover of "Models Inc.," drawn by Phil Jimenez, a popular comic book artist who also illustrated the cover of "Amazing Spider-Man" No. 583, which paired Spidey with President Obama. A sales analysis on the Beat, the comic blog of Publishers Weekly, estimated that more than 520,000 copies of the issue were sold.

The deal has been agreed for several years but it is understood publication was delayed in 2006 to allow Moss to rebuild her career after her alleged cocaine abuse was made public. A final release date for the autobiography has still not been confirmed.

Sir Richard, who has known Moss since she became a model for Storm at the age of 15, said: "It's going to make an exciting read."

He added: "She has led a celebrity life to the max."

It is thought the book will reveal intimate details about her alleged drug abuse, her break-up from Babyshambles rocker Pete Doherty and recent allegations linking her with Eve Berlin from American band Living Things last year while apart from current boyfriend Jamie Hince.
