In May’s Notes from the Horn Book, I chat with Emily Jenkins (yay!) about her new picture book Water in the Park, people-watching, and quirky pet names. Also in this issue:
- more picture books about outdoor play
- biographies of sports heroes
- heroines of historical fiction
- YA adventure stories on audio
