This morning over at Kirkus<\/em>, I’ve got three new picture books from debut author-illustrators. Good stuff, these books. That link is here<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Last week, I had a graphic novel round-up<\/a><\/strong>, so I’m following up today here at 7-Imp with a bit of art from each book — Don Brown’s<\/a><\/strong> Drowned City: Hurricane Katrina & New Orleans<\/em> (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, August 2015); Marika McCoola’s<\/a><\/strong> Baba Yaga’s Assistance<\/em>, illustrated by Emily Carroll<\/a><\/strong> (Candlewick, August 2015); Ben Hatke’s<\/a><\/strong> Little Robot<\/em> (First Second, September 2015); and Ian Lendler’s<\/a><\/strong> The Stratford Zoo Midnight Revue Presents Romeo and Juliet<\/em> (First Second, September 2015), illustrated by Zack Giallongo<\/a><\/strong>. To boot, I’ve got a bit of art from last year’s The Stratford Zoo Midnight Revue Presents Macbeth<\/em>. <\/p>\n

Enjoy! <\/p>\n
