MORE '90-SECOND-NEWBERY' POSTS

    Video Sunday: Mind you, it DOES make me want to read The Olde Tobacco Shoppe . . .

    Betsy Bird, February 9, 2014 | Videos

    Gather round me, little children, and let me tell you of a magical time when the Newbery and Caldecott winners were interviewed on NBC the day after their win in a regular annual segment.  Then twas the coming of Snookie and suddenly children’s book awards weren’t considered newsworthy any longer.  I’ve searched the airwaves to […]

    Video Sunday: At the speed of light, she arrives just in time . . .

    Betsy Bird, January 12, 2014 | Videos

    Some weeks can go by without a single solitary interesting video in sight.  Other weeks, you drown in brilliance.  This week inclines far more towards the latter than the former. I could not lead off today with anything other than the latest bit of Bookie Woogie brilliance.  You keened to their 90-second rendition of Where […]

    Fusenews: “The Axl Rose Hair Metal hair of picture book cover cupcakes”

    Betsy Bird, December 19, 2013 | Fusenews

    It’s been a good week and it’s only Thursday!  I’ve cooed and oohed and aahed over NYPL’s 100 Titles for Reading and Sharing 2013 list before.  Nothing new to say  . . . or is there?  I don’t suppose you happened to see NPR’s interactive booklist consisting of their Best Books of 2013 (in a […]

    Video Sunday: “… drawing and doodling is a form of physicalized empathy” – Mo Willems

    Betsy Bird, June 16, 2013 | Videos

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTG1UG2vIdo&feature=embed Oh, like I was going to start off with anything else this week.  Dahl was robbed! During BEA, one of the women of the hour was our own Monica Edinger (who blogged about the experience here).  Her upcoming book Africa Is My Home: A Child of the Amistad is so remarkable that it is […]

    Video Sunday: I’m only gonna break break your, break break your heart

    Betsy Bird, March 3, 2013 | Videos

    Our good buddy James Kennedy alerted me to the fact that after his magnificent 90-Second Newbery show left New York City for other library systems in other states he received additional, incredibly funny and insane submissions that are worth seeing.  What we have here is a Tacoma-based Frog and Toad Together take on the story […]

    Video Sunday: Sleepy post-Thanksgiving posting

    Betsy Bird, November 27, 2011 | Videos

    Missed posting this last week.  Those Peacekeepers really look spot on, don’t they?  We’ll see how it goes but this trailer gives us a sense that The Hunger Games may be worth watching.  Would have liked to see a little Haymitch, of course. So!  We never filmed the 90-Second Newbery Film Festival at NYPL, but […]

    Fusenews: “Don’t Let the Pigeon Die Alone”

    Betsy Bird, November 18, 2011 | Fusenews

    I hope you all took the time to notice the magnificent One Shot World Tour: City Living conducted by any number of our best bloggers in the biz.  I had every intention of participating and then lost my head.  Fortunately there are folks out there far more reliable than myself for this kind of thing.  […]
