9 Year-Old Gets Six Figure Movie Deal for “How to Talk to Girls" Guide
Fox Broadcasting Company has gotten on board for adapting a film from the self-help book of 9 year-old breakout writer, Alex Greven. As reported by Reuters, the fourth grader’s recently published book, “How to Talk to Girls” has earned him a six-figure deal with the broadcasting company.
Greven’s book was discovered after he began selling it as a handwritten pamphlet for $3 at a book fair at his school. The Colorado student later earned a publishing deal with Harper Collins, which led to the contract with Fox. Fox reportedly initially declined the book, but changed their mind after witnessing the high volume positive reception it has received.
Tips from “How to Talk to Girls” cover everything from how to dress and comb one’s hair to cutting down on sugar to reduce being hyper. The book also identifies pretty girls as those who “have big earrings, fancy dresses and all the jewelry but are like cars that need a lot of oil.”

4 Year Old breaks into Texas store, plays with toys
BEAUMONT, Texas (AP) -- Police called to a variety store by a burglar alarm overnight found a toddler inside, playing with the toys. Police said store surveillance video showed the unidentified boy trying to open one of the front doors to a Family Dollar store about 3 a.m. Monday, only to find it locked. But the second door was unlocked and the child went inside.
That triggered the silent alarm.
Detective Randy Stevens said the child apparently unlocked a door at his nearby home, got out, then crossed a multilane street to reach the store.
A canvass of the neighborhood turned up a family member searching for the child.
CPS spokeswoman Shari Pulliam said Child Protective Services claimed oversight of a 4-year-old boy during a review of the incident. The boy will be allowed to stay with other relatives, not the parents, during the CPS review period.
