The annual BookExpo conference will take place at the Javits Center in New York City.
Some picture books expected to win us over include We Don’t Eat Our Classmates by Ryan T. Higgins (Disney-Hyperion), Carmela Full of Wishes by Matt de la Peña, illustrated by Christian Robinson (Putnam), and Matthew Van Fleet’s Chomp Goes the Alligator (S&S/Wiseman).
Regarding middle grade novels, Jacqueline Woodson’s, Harbor Me, Alan Gratz’s Grenade, and Meg Medina’s Merci Suarez Changes Gears are all high on everyone’s list.
With summer right around the corner, we’re looking forward to some great new reads!
