Baby Got Backlist: Backlist Backbones 2021

By Alex Green | Feb 26, 2021 Children’s booksellers often need to satisfy more than one customer when making a book recommendation. There’s the young reader herself, but there’s likely also a parent, grandparent, or other adult with an opinion about what belongs on her shelf. With multiple people to please, children’s booksellers say they tend to reach for beloved older titles, and consequently, children end up reading deeply into an author or genre’s backlist. In short, backlist is integral to starting kids on the path to becoming lifelong readers, says Cathy Berner, children’s and YA specialist and events coordinator at Blue Willow Bookshop in Houston. “You want to hook them; you want them to love reading. When they do, they gobble up books. When you’ve got a voracious reader, you need to know backlist it’s so important for the bottom line.

Why Dr Seuss is cancelled: Some US schools won’t celebrate him in 2021   Is Dr Seuss cancelled?

Holt By Chad Sanders - - - Thomas C. Holt s slim volume, The Movement: The African American Struggle for Civil Rights, achieves in just 120 pages of text a comprehensiveness that belies its length.

Tricky, because Highsmith s behavior could be as creepy and unsettling as that of the protagonists in her most famous novels, Strangers on a Train and The Talented Mr. Ripley. She liked to seduce married women or lesbians in committed relationships, and she was flagrantly unfaithful to all her lovers. She was an unrepentant alcoholic, drunk from morning till night, who once toppled into the candles on a dinner table and lay there, her hair on fire, while nearby guests tried to smother the flames.
