Toys Go Out


I've been doing some research in the picture book realm--not my normal area of focus--because I'm trying to write a picture book or two. I discovered Emily Jenkins for myself about a year ago when I read, "Toys Go Out." Even if you're not a picture book person, I highly recommend this. It's the most sardonic children's book I've ever read. Quirky and wonderful all the way around. I haven't read it recently enough to give it a proper review, but I intend to buy this book next time my paycheck rolls around.
