Gotta Go's in the Horn Book! David Sedaris is on tour! And Liniers is a NYT Bestseller!

Lists, honors, tours, and more for Gotta Go!​, Liniers, and David Sedaris​!​ Plus it’s Children’s Book Week!

Don’t take our word for it: the experts agree. First, it was on the ALSC K-2 Summer Reading List, and now it's on Horn Book magazine’s 2024 Summer Reading list for Beginning Readers and Primary Grades​.

"This entertaining tale is enhanced by Viva's sleek, stylized illustrations and includes practical tips for children who have to pee but aren't in a place to do so."

Here at TOON, we are counting down the days until we can share Liniers’ Night Stories: Folktales from Latin America with you. Mark your calendars, please: June 4th is right around the corner. Meanwhile, we are so pleased for the longtime TOON author and his collaborator Adam Rubins, who are on the NYTimes Children’s Picture Books bestsellers list with The Truth About the Couch. Be sure to check it out, and while you're at it, pre-order Night Stories​!

Liniers will be one of the headliners at the Boston Kids Comics Fest in June!

If you haven't picked up your copy of Pretty Ugly yet, why not get one now? Better yet, grab a ticket to one of David’s humor and storytelling (for adults) events and get one signed for your favorite munchkin! A win-win for all.
