David R. Godine, Publisher nice review of The Goat-Faced Girl from the Wall Street Journal! "Children ages 5-10 will relish Jane Marinsky's colorful, naïve-style
paintings of Isabella learning to persevere, especially the image of
her determinedly stirring a bowl of batter, unaware of the dab of
chocolate on her goaty nose."

David R. Godine, Publisher Slate's Double X recommends Elizabeth David's Christmas as a bulwark against the madness of this season, "a reminder that whatever I choose to cook for Christmas dinner, it
can't possibly rival anything that involved leaving mincemeat to cure
in your pantry or serving a nice cold tongue."

David R. Godine, Publisher Chris Lydon interviews former British poet laureate Sir Andrew Motion, at "Whose Words These Are." Motion says (pardon if mis-quoted), "I've always wanted to write poems that look like a glass of water but turn out to be gin."

Sir Andrew Motion succeeded Dryden, Wordsworth, Tennyson and, immediately, Ted Hughes as Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom. He can sound like the elegist of rural old imperial England, but he can sting ...

David R. Godine, Publisher "The cast of characters in this reinterpretation of an Italian folktale includes a lizard and witch, deserted baby, and a lovely, lazy girl troubled by a bout of goathead-itis. Not to mention a finicky prince who is shocked to discover a faun-like face on his girlfriend’s body. The story is rich with subtle reminders t...o be self-reliant, productive, authentic, and watchful of the motivations of others. Marinsky’s rich, renaissance-inspired artwork captures just the right imagery."
