The New York Times Book Review has a slew of children’s book reviews this week, by all sorts of excellent reviewers (Sarah Ellis! Leonard Marcus!). I am beyond happy to see Pat Murphy’s The Wild Girls get some much-deserved love.
Packet due on Monday, and so off I am to sit outside with my Neo and write some fiction. At least I have a shiny ARC of Octavian Nothing II to be my reward. w00t as they say!
I had a student tell me the other day that Octavian Nothing was one of her favorite books, and I totally nerded out with her about it for, like, five minutes. I am so excited for part deux.
