Today's #picturebook #interview is with both the author and the illustrator who are bff and got to work on a book together. #kidlit #bookblogger jenabenton.com/2024/05/06/sim…
Grit City Books’ grand opening is this weekend, marking a ‘renaissance’ of the brick-and-mortar bookstore thenewstribune.com/news/local/art…
When the world feels too dark, read a children's book. When you need to feel hope, read a children's book. When you need to believe in magic, read a children's book. Children's lit is a balm to those worn out & in need of wonder. Never dismiss these books as "just for children."
“After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.” Aldous Huxley on the power of music: themarginalian.org/2016/04/05/ald…

These are the novels and collections Gene Wolfe published after the age of 70. Granted “Best of” is a bit of a gimme — he only had to write 32 short essays. And not all the stories in the collection were published after 2001. But he published 61 short fictions in that time.
And, again, the last novel, Interlibrary Loan, was handed to the publisher a month before he died, one month before his 88th birthday. It’s finished but not completely refined. He wrote until he physically could not anymore.
“Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.” ― Søren Kierkegaard, who was born #OTD in 1813 (art by Caroline Smith of Galloway Arts)

"Fairy tales do not give the child the idea of the evil; that is in the child already, because it is in the world already. The baby has known the dragon intimately ever since he had an imagination. What the fairy tale provides is a St. George to kill the dragon." —G.K. Chesterton
Yes! At children's book festivals, I often hear things like "No, that's for babies" or "No, that's for girls!" It's frustrating.
In the library, I've heard so many parents respond to kids' book choices with "You're too old for that", "That has too few words", "That's too easy", etc. Are you kidding me?!! Let them read EVERY "too easy" book they want (while, of course, adding more advanced ones, too).

When the world feels too dark, read a children's book. When you need to feel hope, read a children's book. When you need to believe in magic, read a children's book. Children's lit is a balm to those worn out & in need of wonder. Never dismiss these books as "just for children."
