“We’re getting tons of proposals and manuscripts for both fiction and nonfiction with political themes — immigration, internment, refugees, police brutality and sexual harassment,” said Megan Tingley, executive vice president and publisher of Little, Brown Kids. She added that children’s books on activism and social justice topics — often beautifully designed — are increasingly considered “retail-friendly. They’re not homework, people want them in their homes.”
Whereas McCain’s funeral had delivered blunt rebukes to the absent Trump – who was pointedly not invited – in all but name, Bush’s was a case of less is more. The homages to a complex, patrician figure who called for a “kinder, gentler” nation threw Trump, the 45th president, into sharp relief.
When “Little Man, Little Man” was first published in 1976, critics didn’t know what to make of an experimental, enigmatic picture book that straddled the line between children’s and adult literature. It received lukewarm reviews and quickly went out of print.

Google promises unlimited free “storage,” sure: “safe, secure, and always with you.” But some of its other promises, the ones we haven’t heard before, are strikingly of their time: “Never worry about running out of space on your phone again.”
Wednesday marked the first time since Lyndon Johnson’s death in 1973 that a sitting president was not asked to eulogize a late president.

Barnes & Noble’s stores have been hit with “limited quantities, delays in publication dates, and more just-in-time minute-by-minute delivery that has driven delivery expense,” said Tim Mantel, Barnes & Noble’s chief merchandising officer.
I got my first migraine at age 7, after a friend’s birthday party in the Midwestern July heat where we consumed nothing but candy and lemonade. Since then, they’ve been a constant, debilitating struggle. By the time I found a great neurologist at age 25, I’d tried to kick my migraines a ton of different ways. When my neuro recommended the book Heal Your Headache by Dr. David Buchholz, I figured I had nothing to lose by reading it.
The print shortages have left both large and small retailers scrambling, though a huge company like Amazon can more easily absorb the effect of lost sales than a small independent store.
This is so difficult! And I feel like this is disloyal, but my favorite items are going to be from Penn State Special Collections (my previous employer), because A) DCL’s collections are smaller and more contemporary, and B) I’m still in the process of getting to know the collections here. I have two favorites from PSU. One is a book of decorative monograms that I became very fond of after using it for a couple of typography classes: A New Book of Cyphers: Containing in General All Names Interwoven, & Revers’d, by Alphabet, by Benjamin Rhodes, 1723. It’s a lovely book, not especially remarkable for an 18th-century specimen, but there’s something so visually arresting about the emblems. Even the students who couldn’t be bothered to look up from their phones for any other fantastic artifact would get excited about this one. And the first thing anyone does with this book is look up their own initials. The other most beautiful thing I’ve ever gotten to play with was this deck of cards designed and illustrated by artist Laura Davidson: all hand printed, painted and gilt, tucked into a handmade wooden box. (“Flora and Fauna,” edition of 20, 2008.) She transformed the card suits into fruits and insects and set them in these dreamy garden scenes. It’s hard for me to explain my love for this, aside from it being lovely and delightful, but I think it has something to do with the fact that it’s reinterpreting something familiar in a contemporary and unabashedly feminine way.
