Protect WVPB

Statement From Chairman Of The Educational Broadcasting Authority
State funding for the West Virginia Educational Broadcasting Authority, the governing board of West Virginia Public Broadcasting, is currently up for debate in the West Virginia Legislature. The proposed Senate bill zeroes out $3.8 million in funding for the EBA, while the House bill fully funds it.
In a statement, EBA Chairman Bill File said that everything West Virginia Public Broadcasting does is in service to the people of the Mountain State.
"I’m confident West Virginia’s Legislature and Administration will work to find a way to continue their critical support of WVPB," File said. "The value WVPB brings to our State is enormous, as shown in its award-winning educational programs supporting our children’s efforts to learn during the recent pandemic. Public Broadcasting plays an important role in the quality of life in our State, and it has a positive impact on our efforts to recruit businesses and families to relocate to West Virginia."

Love Is a Revolution

Lorem
From
New York Times bestselling and award-winning author Renée Watson comes a love story about not only a romantic relationship but how a girl finds herself and falls in love with who she really is.
When Nala Robertson reluctantly agrees to attend an open mic night for her cousin-sister-friend Imani's birthday, she finds herself falling in instant love with Tye Brown, the MC. He's perfect, except . . . Tye is an activist and is spending the summer putting on events for the community when Nala would rather watch movies and try out the new seasonal flavors at the local creamery. In order to impress Tye, Nala tells a few tiny lies to have enough in common with him. As they spend more time together, sharing more of themselves, some of those lies get harder to keep up. As Nala falls deeper into keeping up her lies and into love, she'll learn all the ways love is hard, and how self-love is revolutionary.

"I Sang You Down From the Stars," by Tasha Spillett-Sumner, illustrated by Michaela Goade. (Little, Brown, $18.99, ages 4-8. In stores April 6.)
Inniniwak (Cree) and Trinidadian writer Tasha Spillett-Sumner draws on her Native heritage to tell a loving story of a mother and infant. "I loved you before I met you," she says. As the baby grows inside of her, the mother gathers significant objects — a feather, a pebble, a quilt — to give to her child. In January, Michaela Goade, who is Tlingit, became the first Native artist to win the prestigious Caldecott Medal (for "We Are Water Protectors"). Her dreamy watercolor and mixed media illustrations for this book swirl and sparkle with violet and blue swooshes and recurring patterns of stars. It is a gorgeous celebration of Native traditions.

Self-help books for kids

When Harry Met Sally, "someone is staring at you in Personal Growth." But if you're a parent, the gawker is likely not the small person in your life who could stand to benefit the most from that bookstore section. While they don't actually make self-help books for little ones, picture books have been doing the heavy lifting for years, laying the foundation for conversation while validating children's feelings and empowering them along the way. Here, EW has compiled some of the best recent releases (and a few you can preorder) to help you help them.

Ernesto Cisneros suspected he was in trouble when his editor reached out to set up a meeting last week. He hadn’t completed the edits to his second book yet. When he logged in and saw about 10 people in the meeting, he thought it might have been an author intervention.
Instead he was notified — a day before it was publicly announced — that he won the Pura Belpré Children’s Author award with his debut novel “

Tae Keller's Newbery Win: 'My Brain Short-Circuited'

By Shannon Maughan
|
Jan 26, 2021
Author Tae Keller’s Seattle apartment is “probably the cleanest it’s ever been,” she said. It got that way because she had a lot of nervous energy to burn off this past weekend. “On Friday I found out that I had won the Asian/Pacific Award for Children’s Literature,” she recalled, “and my editor [Caroline Abbey] sent me an email saying the Asian committee wanted to talk to me on Sunday and set up a Zoom call.” That prospect had her feeling both excited and anxious. “I thought it was probably them congratulating me, or, potentially taking the award away, which I was pretty nervous about.”

How Not to Read Cheesy Books with Your Quarantine...

For parents of school-aged children, it’s finally sinking in: This will be a long COVID winter. We’re already eleven months into isolation, which feels like the previous winter never really ended. We simply went from bundling up our kids before they played in the yard to slathering them with sunscreen (for the same yard) to bundling up again. And our hearts sink every time they wander back indoors. What to do
next?
In both our families, the answer is always books. Not only does an author reside in each household; in addition, Erin runs an elementary school library, and Sarah helps plan literary conferences. Plus, both of us are preliminary judges for the annual CT Book Awards: Erin in the Children and Youth category, Sarah for Fiction. We unabashedly consider writers to be essential workers.
