Children’s Book-a-Day Almanac

Part fun- and infor­ma­tion-filled almanac, part good book guide, the Chil­dren’s Book-a-Day Almanac is a new way to dis­cov­er a great chil­dren’s book—every day of the year!

This fresh, inven­tive ref­er­ence book is a dynam­ic way to show­case the gems, both new and old, of chil­dren’s lit­er­a­ture. Each page fea­tures an event of the day, a chil­dren’s book that relates to that event, and a list of oth­er events that took place on that day. Always infor­ma­tive and often sur­pris­ing, cel­e­brate a year of lit­er­a­ture for chil­dren with the Chil­dren’s Book-a-Day Almanac.
