Friday Whatnot: April 24, 2015

It was nice to hear Aaron Rosenberg’s voice coming through my radio this morning. He represented Magers & Quinn in this story featured on NPR’s Morning Edition: Rejected Decades Ago, Publisher Can’t Keep ‘Pioneer Girl’ In Stock


Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill announced a Last Child in the Woods National Park Pass Sweepstakes.
