On the Adventures in Odyssey Facebook page it shows this car with AIO logos on it, which will be participating in the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in Colorado. The race was originally supposed to happen on July 8th but was rescheduled for August 12th in the wake of extensive wildfires. This will be the competition's 90th annual event. According to the AIO Facebook page, the driver simply "wanted AIO on his car."

The back cover of Album 15: A Place of Wonder has been updated with a new drawing of the treehouse known as Wonderworld, where kids from Odyssey occasionally spend time to improve their imaginations. The picture has been drawn by Gary Locke. This album was originally part of the Gold Audio Series but it is now being re-released to appear like a regular Adventures in Odyssey album. However, the first time the new back cover was released the treehouse was not drawn by Locke, so it has now been replaced. You can click on each image below to view a larger version. Thanks to Christianbook.com for this new artwork.
The official cover of Album 56: The Grand Design is now online on Christianbook.com. The previous high resolution image of the cover released was a fan rendering based on the 4th Social Shout Out video. This new version is what will be available for purchase in stores. As you can see it has some minor changes. Some obvious differences are that the outside borders are slightly darker and the framing of the artwork has been altered.
