Reviews
The authors' enthusiasm and engagement will keep the pages turning. [F]ascinating... The discussion of censorship is particularly thoughtful, both emphasizing intellectual freedom and considering the problematic nature of classic literature amid changing cultural sensibilities. ... [A] whole lot of enjoyment and no small amount of edification. -Kirkus Reviews Memorize every word of this brilliant book, then quote it at cocktail parties and watch as knees buckle beneath your erudite greatness. -Jack Gantos, author of "Dead End in Norvelt," winner of the Newbery Medal I was afraid this book might be one of those eat-your-vegetables, musty history lessons. To my delight it skipped the vegetables entirely and went straight for delicious and dangerous desserts. I ate it up in one sitting. -Lane Smith, illustrator of "The Stinky Cheese Man," a Caldecott Honor Book For anyone who thought children's books and their creators were all sugar and spice, fasten your seat belt and get ready for an unexpected joyride through the genre! Wild Things! pulls back a rose-colored curtain to expose the real deal behind bunnies, banned books, and how 'the next big thing' is built. -Andrea Davis Pinkney and Brian Pinkney, creators of "Duke Ellington: The Piano Prince and His Orchestra," a Caldecott Honor Book Wow, what an interesting group we creators of children's books are! Of course, we've known this all along, but because of Betsy Bird, Julie Danielson, and Peter Sieruta, the rest of the world can know, too. What a great book! I literally couldn't put it down. -Tomie dePaola, author-illustrator of "Strega Nona," a Caldecott Honor Book, and "26 Fairmount Avenue," a Newbery Honor Book With tales of banned bunnies, drunken ducks, and gay penguins, "Wild Things!" leads the battle against the ignorance, half-truths, and just plain foolishness that afflict so much writing about children's literature. Punchy, lively, and carefully researched, the book is a must-read for anyone interested in books for the young. So. Stop reading this blurb, and buy the book. -Philip Nel, co-editor of "Tales for Little Rebels: A Collection of Radical Children's Literature" In its jolly mission to expose the dark underbelly of the children's book world, " Wild Things!" turns up stories I've been hearing noised about for ages, but with a lot more detail and authenticity. The stories may not be quite as sordid as my own imagination had conjured up-although a few of them are-because there's no denying that this field is full of mostly nice people!-but it's all fun and a great read for anyone interested in both children's books and the collection of people who make them. -Paul O. Zelinsky, author-illustrator of "Rapunzel," winner of the Caldecott Medal I'm a sucker for stories about the makers and makings of great children's books, and "Wild Things!" is full of tales that are vivid, rich, and the good kind of gossipy. -Mac Barnett, author of "Extra Yarn," a Caldecott Honor Book If you know anything about children's books or nothing about children's books, Wild Things! is for you. It is the real deal. Read it now. It will make you smarter. And you will never look at fuzzy bunnies the same way ever again. -Jon Scieszka, former National Ambassador for Young People's Literature and author of "The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales," a Caldecott Honor Book A frisky safari through the wilderness of children's literature. . . . The narration is deft, detailed, and wide-ranging. -Laura Amy Schlitz, author of "Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! Voices from a Medieval Village," winner of the Newbery Medal Open this secret door that children's literature warns us against and you're in for a walk on the wild side, not to mention a pie in the face -- in fact, on almost every page, a pie in the face. This book is a mischievous, risky, highly amusing, disturbing, and informative romp. I say, suppress it. -Jules Feiffer, illustrator of "The Phantom Tollbooth" by Norton Juster, Memorize every word of this brilliant book, then quote it at cocktail parties and watch as knees buckle beneath your erudite greatness. -Jack Gantos, author of "Dead End in Norvelt," winner of the Newbery Medal I was afraid this book might be one of those eat-your-vegetables, musty history lessons.
