Cover Reveal: Thirty Minutes Over Oregon: A Japanese Pilot’s World War II Story by Marc Tyler Nobleman
I’m getting pickier. The more that I’m asked to do cover reveals for books, the more I want to make sure that the books in question are up to snuff. It’s a pity how rare it is that I’m asked to reveal a book that I’ve already read. But you know what? Sometimes it happens. […]
Cover Reveal: Fairy Spell by Marc Tyler Nobleman, ill. Eliza Wheeler
Fake news. It’s not exactly new. From the moment humanity created the idea of news they also saw the vast potential that comes with “tweaking” it, shall we say. As librarians one of our jobs is to help turn out children into savvy skeptics. You can understand then why I’m always on the watch for […]

Video Sunday: It’s Been a Long Long Time, M’Dear
Howdy! I’m neck deep in book promotion for old Funny Girl these days, but that doesn’t mean I can’t cut a little chunk of time out of my daily schedule to bring you a swath of some good old-fashioned videos for this Sunday morn. And what a swath it is! First up, a video that […]
Fusenews: Dem-o-gorgon or Dem-a-gorgon?
Morning, poppins! Yesterday, for the first time in a long while, I submitted a Video Sunday for your approval. Trouble is, I may have failed to mention one of the most fascinating videos out there with a tie-in to books for kids, so I’d like to rectify the situation today. The title of the article […]
Fusenews: Saving the Second Penny
The problem with this Fusenews feature is that if I don’t do them regularly then the news out there builds up, builds up, builds up, until there’s so much of it out there that I’m almost embarrassed to do anything with it. Such is the case today! And, as per usual, I’ll say that I’m […]

Fusenews: Anagnorisis, Masks of the Oculate Being, and More . . .
Morning, folks. I’ve been looking to expand my knowledge beyond just children’s literature, so I figured a good podcast would be the best way to go. After reading Bustle’s 11 literary podcasts to get your bookish fix throughout the day I settled on Books on the Nightstand as the closest thing out there to a Pop […]
Video Sunday: Mind you, it DOES make me want to read The Olde Tobacco Shoppe . . .
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 . . .
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 […]
Notes from The Nonfiction Dialogue Stickler of Doom
If you had told me as recently as a year ago that I was doomed to become The Nonfiction Dialogue Stickler of Doom (copyright pending) I would have said . . . . well, honestly I would have asked where you came up with that term. Then, once you’d defined it (Nonfiction Dialogue Stickler of […]
