I’ve read lots and lots in the past several months, but summoning the energy and attention to write recommendations about the best has been difficult.

But here comes April, and another A2Z Challenge beckons http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/.

I’ve successfully completed this challenge every year since 2011, so why stop now?

So every April day except Sundays, I’ll recommend a book from under-represented authors and smaller presses for teens, tweens, and kids – with no ads, no AI, and no spoilers.

In the face of terrible news and technological garbage-flood, I’ll bring you 26 books from A to Z – charming and challenging, entertaining and informational – and hopefully get back to posting more regularly.

The hardest part of April A2Z? Finding the books for Q and Z.
The next hardest part? Starting to write again, so here we go!
