>The June issue of Notes from the Horn Book should be in your inbox right now (if not, see it and sign up here). Included in this issue: Roger interviews Alexandra Day (Good Dog, Carl‘s mistress), recommends some picture books for dog and pony lovers, holds forth on some eagerly anticipated sequels, and makes a plug for library summer reading programs. Plus: Ask the Horn Book questions answered, three compelling and topical titles, and reading suggestions in anticipation of the Fourth of July.


>I loved seeing the Day interview. We have a Rottweiler, so we always read it substituting our dog’s name in. My oldest, who is seven, still insists that the books are about her and her dog. Any suggestion otherwise upsets her greatly.
