The Formula One “96 Facts” Book Comes Out on March 3rd!
Attention, racing fans! (Or more accurately, parents of racing fans!) 96 Facts About Formula One will come out from Penguin Random House on Tuesday March 3rd, 2026. Like most of the previous “96 Facts” books, this one was written by yours truly and illustrated by the amazing Risa Rodil.
Here’s the official publisher description of 96 Facts About Formula One:
Packed with fun facts, quick quizzes, and bonus pages for journaling, this is a must-have for anyone wanting to know more about some of F1’s most famous drivers, including Charles Leclerc, Jamie Chadwick, Lella Lombardi, Lewis Hamilton, Marta García, and Max Verstappen.

BTW, if you’ve read my previous blog post, you’ll notice that 96 Facts About Formula One is not the only “96 Facts” book which will be published on March 3rd. 96 Datos Sobre Taylor Swift, the Spanish-language edition of my bestselling book 96 Facts About Taylor Swift, also comes out that very same day. So if you have a kid who’s into pop stars, racecars, or some combination
thereof, they’ll have something to read that day!

“Words, Images, & Worlds” Podcast Interview!
Earlier this year, I was a guest on an episode of the “Words, Images, & Worlds” podcast, where host Jason DeHart interviewed me. During the interview, we chatted about some of my recent projects, my writing process, and my many theories on what makes Batman tick. Or, as Jason put it in his official description of the episode:
“Author Arie Kaplan talks about writing comics, television, and more, including stories of his creative journey and unexpected turns.”
Anyway, the episode is out NOW!
Check out the YouTube version of the episode HERE.
And listen to the Apple Podcasts version of the episode HERE.
BTW, if you do listen to the interview, you’ll notice that towards the end of it, I briefly mention that the next couple of “96 Facts” books will be coming out soon. They’re actually coming out VERY soon. As in, tomorrow. Yup, 96 Facts About Selena Gomez and 96 Facts About Lizzo will both be
published tomorrow, Tuesday, March 5th, 2024, by Penguin Random House. Both books are written by me and illustrated by the amazing Risa Rodil.
And just in case you don’t know:
