PW 2013 Fall Children's Books


It's here! It's here!

I just started it last night. This issue will take a little time. It's one of my favorite issues becuase I actually create buying lists from this issue. I circle, cross out and star selections and put it in my desk for the day when I get my budget numbers from the school district in November.

So far I'm still in the articles. I loved the one about what indie booksellers do to stock their stores with kids and YA books. It made me think, " How do I become a children's book buyer?" Can I honestly be paid for that? I mean I get paid for it by the school district to buy books for the library, but I also have to read to 600 children a week too, and all for the awesome salary of $12/hour. I bet if I worked for a  book store I would get paid more than that and wouldn't have to apply bandaids and clean up bloody noses.

Oh, this magazine always make me think and drool.
