Explore the Forest

The April issue of the Edge of the Forest online children's literature journal has hit the cyber newsstands. Plan a picnic, bring your friends, keep to the path, or forge your own.

Just a few of this month's features:

Kelly Herold of Big A little a interviews Michael Buckley, the author of the Sister's Grimm series.

In honor of National Poetry Month, children's writer and poet, Heidi Roemer, talks about her writing life, and shares a favorite poem for reader/writers.

Louise Hayes of Students for Literacy Ottawa interviews children from her Reading Circle about their favorite books, and why they love them.

Explore the Forest. I can't vouch for the critters and enchantments you might encounter along the way, but the articles, news, interviews, and reviews will be worth the journey.

Thanks for the mention! I actually meant to track down your blog when I saw you listed as as member of the Editorial Board at the Edge of the Forest (as yours was the only one I was unfamiliar with) - but you made it easier!
