Spring 2021 Sneak Preview – Little, Brown & Co.
There’s nothing more exciting than getting a BIG box of books delivered to your doorstep from a publisher. Last week, I received a box from Hachette, specifically the Little, Brown Books for Young Readers. The box is filled with spring 2021 titles and I get a chance to read and review them for my blog! With 26 titles a mix of picture books, chapter books, middle grade and young adult fiction – I’m going to be very busy!
At first glance, the list is heavy on graphic novels which is really exciting! There are also some really great picture book authors and illustrators in the mix that I’m excited about. Names like Peter Brown, Bob Shea, Dave Eggers, Rafael Lópezl, Raúl the Third, and Aaron Becker.
