With BEA (BookExpo America) right around the corner, it is never too early to start making plans. Although Kristen and I would love desperately to attend this year, it is not meant to be. I am in the process of planning a move to Ohio and Kristen is busy with other things. But that will not stop us from wishing that we were attending nor wanting to covet some of these galleys. Publisher's Weekly, Children's Edition has recently launched a guide to some of the hottest children's / YA books to grab at this year's BEA. Here are some of our favorites.
