One must not tell a lie.

Especially the One and OnlySparkella.

“She was so nervous to tell me, but then when she told me she felt better.”

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY:This is the third book in theSparkellaseries of books.

CHANNING TATUM:If you have kids, you teach massive life lessons almost every day.

What can you do to calm that down and to look inside?

You don’t need to look outside of yourself.

The second book was really when things are not going how you expected them to go.

I remembered a time where my daughter had taken a car, a toy from school.

It was eating her up that she took it.

She felt so bad about it.

But then when she told me she felt better and we returned the little toy car.

It was really fascinating.

The biggest thing is that they think they’re going to be in trouble.

And that’s just the natural course of the world, I guess.

I say to Evie “You’re not gonna be in trouble with me.

I’m not gonna be mad at you.

You know what you did wrong.

We were just joking.

And it’s kind of what’s amazing about them, but also a little treacherous to navigate sometimes.

Any new developments on the previously announcedSparkellafilm?

We’re still pretty early.

We don’t have a director yet.

We have a script.

We could possibly go into Sparkella’s imagination or into her magic.

Father’s Day is this month do you have a favorite memory from a past Father’s Day?

I haven’t thought through this weekend, much less Father’s Day.

It was Vans this year and she’s getting really good now.

So I have one for every single year that she’s been alive.
