Children’s bookstores are magical places. Books of Wonder is simply amazing. The original artwork from children’s books, the signed novels–the place is both a landmark and a treasure, and like walking back through the history of children’s literature. If you go to New York City, don’t miss this place, especially if you have kids or grandkids!
Also, their Edgars panel for Juvenile and YA nominees is a total blast.
I feel so fortunate to be back for a second year, with Things Too Huge to Fix By Saying Sorry a nominee in the Best Juvenile category, alongside so many other amazing novels!
Once again, the Mysterious Bookshop offered nominees and readers a lovely (and of course, mysterious) reception, this year complete with dark skies, driving rain, and howling winds to increase the spooky ambience. Truly, it was the perfect scene for a murder, but per my understanding, no bodies were discovered.
Yet.
