Two years later, Little, Brown published The Beetlebung Farm Cookbook: A Year of Cooking on Martha’s Vineyard. The following year, in 2016, it won the James Beard Award for “American Cooking.” By all measures, it was a success — a beautiful, thoroughly researched book met with critical acclaim. But while Fischer’s book thrived, he struggled personally.

"It’s certainly not news to anyone that the newspaper and magazine industry has rapidly declined in recent years. While many national publications have managed to stay afloat, local publications have suffered severe losses," the editors pointed out. "It doesn’t just stop at publications, however. Printing companies like Bartash also get swept up in the ripple effect of local publications’ low readership.

The Wayward Children series occupies a liminal space in literary classification systems. The books’ teen and even child protagonists mark them as what we might call YA lit, and there are few teens I wouldn’t press them upon. But the voice of their omniscient narrator, who will occasionally pull back from the action to make larger comments about our ideas of morality and “doing good,” is much more mature and mournful, marked by regret. (I’m convinced McGuire is building to some sort of late-in-series reveal about just who this narrator is.) They’re books teens will love that, on some level, can most be appreciated by adults.
Terry Glass uses a cutting machine to trim cookbook pages to the final size as Joann Glass and one of their grandsons work in the background.
I’m still figuring out how we do exhibits here! I have exactly one display case and what’s in there right now is a thematic grouping of Visually Interesting Stuff I Found While Cleaning Out The Vault. Working on some ideas about seasonal rotation and the possibility of community involvement (highlighting student research or history projects) so… stay tuned?

L.A. Campbell, who writes middle grade novels, coordinates a Future Now Fund giving circle called Propeller, which focuses on state political races, with a particular interest in Maine. The nature of children’s literature, she noted, lends itself to the notion of an uphill struggle, so a daunting political cause feels like familiar ground. “The main character of a children’s book is going to have to solve a huge problem, and no one is coming to help.
