Picture Books and Early Chapter Books from NCTE

What a crazy November it has been!  I enjoyed another amazing NCTE!  It really is a highlight of the year - seeing favorite nerdy friends, learning new ideas that rejuvenate my thinking and seeing all the new books!  

I spent some time in the Little Brown, Chronicle, Peachtree, Charlesbridge and HarperCollins booths checking out what's to come.  Here's a peek of some picture books and early chapter books I know you'll want on your radar!
