Fusenews: Giant Dance Party Changes Nothing
Shhh! I’m busy prepping for my daughter’s birthday so I really shouldn’t be blogging. My hands, however, are firmly tied. How can I help but blog when there’s so much interesting information out there these days? Check out some of these crazy cool links I found recently. If you know me then you know I […]
Wanted for Big Cash Prizes: American History Books
I think I need a new hobby. I should collect, and place on a website somewhere a listing of all the high cash, little known book awards for children’s books out there. Perhaps this already exists somewhere. Hm. In any case, it wasn’t long ago that a friend alerted me to the Grateful American Book […]

Fusenews: “It’s like a shoe of flesh”
Mmm. Vanity straight up. So I never quite know how to post “me stuff” news when it’s particularly nice. On the one hand I could post the link with the typical “I’m not worthy” statement attached, but that always sounds as if I doth protest too much. Or, I could go the other route, and […]

Fusenews: Not seething with envy. It’s more of a percolation process.
So what’s the talk of the town these days? Well the relative brouhaha came about at the end of last week when ReedPOP announced a panel of “the world’s biggest children’s authors” in the field. That the luminaries in question were all white and male struck a raw nerve with a whole slew of folks. […]
Fusenews: The P.D. Eastman Influence
Hope you all had a marvelous Thanksgiving yesterday! I had family in town, including my niece and brother-in-law. Steve, the bro-in-law in question, has a kind of genius for synthesizing down P.D. Eastman books to their most essential lessons. He’s always objected to Are You My Mother? on the basis that this baby bird is […]
