Vinnie Fiorello, drummer/lyricist of Less Than Jake and founder of Paper and Plastick has announced the release of his first children's book. The book, entitled Sometimes Robots Like Being Robots, is due out June 12, 2009. Some details about the writing process were posted at Fiorello's blog:

It is a children's book functioning as an open letter to his first love, robots. Fascinated by the mechanical characters from an early age, a collection of them sit atop a tall shelf in his office, looming over him as he toils and schemes his next creative venture. As he has gotten older, the idea of robots has become a little deeper to him than the buzzes and beeps that originally caught his attention. The stories slid around in his head and out of his hands as he traveled from coast to coast. He quickly jotted them down on napkins and in notebooks. These stories are international, written in airplanes and scripted in bumpy taxis across the world.

More information on the book can be seen here.
