Takeover: It's a kidlit takeover! Writer and librarian Lara Cain Gray joins legendary author/illustrator Jules Faber to chat in a very grown-up way about children's books. Lara's new release helps adults dive deeper into the mechanics of picture books, while Jules is about to let his 50th book loose on an unsuspecting public. You've been warned. Book blurb: The Grown-Up's Guide to Picture Books is an A to Z guide to what makes a great picture book great. It provides parents, carers, educators, or anyone with an interest, the tools they need to dig deeper into this magical story format.

And in any case, why should kids have all the fun?
