Review of the Day: The Real Dada Mother Goose by Jon Scieszka, ill. Julia Rothman
As smart as it is funny, this is the Mother Goose book we didn’t know we’d been waiting for all this time.
Review of the Day: Book of Questions / Libro de las Preguntas by Pablo Neruda, ill. Paloma Valdivia
A bilingual production, the book is as physically beautiful as it is mentally engaging. For the know-it-alls amongst us, turns out Mr. Neruda still has something to teach us, young and old.
Review of the Day: Marshmallow Clouds by Ted Kooser & Connie Wanek, ill. Richard Jones
Marshmallow Clouds is one of those books that works so effectively for young readers that it feels as though the co-authors (co-poets?) had been honing their talents for kids, specifically, for years. One of those books that will subtly coil its way around your heart, even as you obliviously flip page after page after page.
