NEW MIMS HOUSE BOOKS
At Mims House, we are jumping up and down with news of new books.
HOT OFF THE PRESS - Children's Books Council
The Children's Book Council has named I AM THE THIRSTY DESERT a Hot Off the Press Book. Wahoo! Illustrator Kim Jordan will be guest posting on March 15 about her unusual collage techniques.
“…informative, effective, and poetic introduction to a desert’s beauty and complexity.” Kirkus Reviews
The book launches March 14, but as always, you can get it early on our website. This is a lyrical narrative from the point of view of the desert itself about a storm that results in a superbloom.
