Reading More about Margaret Wise Brown

A 1946 profile of the author and some other interesting pieces

A couple quick things up top:

We made some new Looking at Picture Book hats! These are forest green and our “official orange.” Last time we didn’t make enough hats—sorry about that. (We’re not sure that we got it right this time either.)

Jon and I did a podcast interview with The Mother of It All, theoretically about Looking at Picture Books, but also lots of other stuff; as you probably know, we tend to digress.

Jon wrote an essay for the New York Times Book Review about board books, because he has some new board books coming out.

In our latest post on Goodnight Moon, we refer to a 1946 LIFE Magazine profile of Margaret Wise Brown. It’s a fascinating piece, and I have a copy of the magazine in my office, so we thought we’d share it — and some more “further reading” — with you.
