One reason – among many! – I am in regular awe of librarians is because they are always in-the-know about the latest books to read. Our crack editorial team has put together a new Spring 2012 Librarian Preview, and now everyone – including you, whether you’re a librarian, another industry professional, or just a big fan of reading – can watch it to find out what’s coming up next spring in the world of children’s books.

Watch it here!

John Mason and Lizette Serrano host the video and will walk you through the picture books, teen titles, nonfiction reads, and more that are coming out in just a few months. You’ll see new books coming from Siobhan Vivian, Chris Wooding, Kim Harrington, Michael Northrop, Henry Winkler, Shana Corey, and more — and a few surprise appearances from the authors themselves! And, we’ve split it up into chapters, so you can watch just the genres you’re most interested in.

Which books are you getting ready to read? Let us know in the comments!
