Children's Book Reviews

One of life's joys is reading to your children and later on to your grandchildren. To that end,

I am always on the look out for good children's literature, of which I have a great appreciation  for. This past Christmas, with my two year old granddaughter in mind, I found a series of board books by Danielle Hitchen, entitled "The Baby Believer Series." I loved the fact that they were board books (Indestructible, I think), warmly illustrated and with simple Bible verses.There is a new release coming out before Easter. Check out World Magazine Books of the Year for Children for a review of this and several others.

An Assault On Fact And Truth

BREAKING NEWS: The Remaking of Journalism and Why It Matters Now, by Alan Rusbridger. (Farrar, Straus & Giroux, $30.) The former editor of the British daily The Guardian recalls coping with the dramatic transformation of the newspaper business and his concerns about the present assault on truth and fact. “Rusbridger wants us to know what it felt like to work inside a news organization during this era, and his painstaking account is fascinating. Reviewer, Ann Marie Lipinski, writes. “The rapid technology changes, collapsing business model, 9/11, media convergence, paywall wars, dawn of social media, rise of the “citizen journalist” and more are here valuably detailed by a gifted reporter focused on the story of his own profession.”
