Beware the Ides of March? Nah!

March 15 may be the Ides of March, but it's also the date of the latest Kidsbookclubbing e-newsletter featuring book giveaways and behind-the-scenes stories from top authors:
- Gayle Brandeis, who "seamlessly intersperses serious topics with laugh-out loud humor" (School Library Journal) in her middle-grade historical novel, My Life with the Lincolns. (for ages 10 and up)
 -Chris Bradford: he tells us about martial arts, special powers, and his 17th-century action-adventure series Young Samurai (for ages 10 and up).

- and Y.S. Lee, who reimagines Victorian England with her smart teenage heroine Mary Quinn in The Agency: A Spy in the House. (for ages 12 and up)

Perhaps these are possibilities for your next book group read?  Enjoy.

PS  A new Picnic Basket title will be featured in the next day or two...stay tuned...
