@USBBY has posted its 2024 Outstanding International Books (OIB) list. What a sea of beauty! I was thrilled to see two of the books I adore--and helped translate/edit--with @EnchantedLionBooks on the list! usbby.org/news/2024-outs… #WorldKidLit

The French import "101 Ways to Read a Book" by Timothée de Fombelle and artist Benjamin Chaud (and translated by @redcometpress publisher @YuenKillick and me) made the @nytimes Holiday Gift Books for Children list today! "Oddball charm" is exactly right! nytimes.com/2023/12/01/boo…

The Magicians (@EnchantedLion) gets its fourth shiny star from @bookpage and @yijiang_! "Elevated word choice and spirited phrasing give a timeless quality to Blexbolex's fantastic graphic novel, which muses upon mercy, change and possibility." bookpage.com/reviews/the-ma…

October 17 is the book birthday of 101 Ways to Read a Book, a delightful book I co-translated from French with Angus Yuen-Killick @redcometpress! Do you read too long in the sun like the Lobster? Or are you perhaps the Water Lily, reading while immersed in a bath tub? Find out!

kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/b… Hooray! A starred Kirkus Review for The Magicians, a gorgeous, dreamlike, action-packed « tour de force » by French artist/author Blexbolex, due from #EnchantedLion on November 7.


Delight du jour: One French way to say something is unusually great/flawless is “not nibbled by beetles.” “…pas piqué des hannetons”


The best marquee ever.
