Judge Nominated for Greenaway
Huge congrats to Lita Judge who has been longlisted for the CILIP Kate Greenaway medal. This award is like the prestigious Caldecott medal except across the pond, in England. Three cheers for Lita.
New Book: Miranda and Maude!
Have you seen this adorable duo, yet? Miranda and Maude are at it again, this time working on a school play. While they navigate performance and stage fright, they also find cause to battle for non-styrofoam lunch trays and the most worthy cause of all, love. Great for ages 7-10.
Kirkus calls this one “a delightful read!” We couldn’t agree more. Congrats to Emma Wunsch and the princessy and not-so-princessy duo!
