We are pleased to present you with some
Backlist Gems—treasures published prior to this year that folks
wanted to bring front and center again! What a terrific way to remind
our librarian friends about these gems, we thought. And at the same
time, we could help meet collection development needs, too.
So, this is the place to come and be reminded of the many great
backlist gems that are available from Random House Children's Books.
If you have a favorite that you want to remind people of just email
us at schoolandlibrarymarketing@randomhouse.com
and we'll do our best to get them posted!
This month take a look at our extensive list
of Poetry Gems!
