We’re glad to be closing out the year with something timeless.
Releasing Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: An Illustrated Edition felt like the right way to end the year, and the beginning of our new Illustrated Classics Series at unQbd.
Here are some books that Tennessee banned this year, makes you wonder what are they afraid of to have kids read? Do your children a favor, give them one of these books.

🎁 Wrap Bright, Gift Delight! 📚
Fresh, kid-friendly ideas for wrapping children’s books with a fun, creative twist:
Use Comic Pages: Grab old comic books or comic-style sheets for a superhero vibe. Tie with a neon shoelace for bold, adventurous flair.
Add Googly Eye Magic: Stick googly eyes on the wrapping paper to make the gift a silly character. Seal with colorful washi tape for extra fun.
Draw a Puzzle Wrap: Wrap in plain paper and sketch a quick maze or dot-to-dot game on it. Tuck in a crayon for pre-unwrap playtime.
Pop-Up Tag Surprise: Craft a tiny paper heart or animal that springs up when the tag’s opened. Add a note like, “Dive into this story!”
Bubble Wrap Bonus: Layer clear bubble wrap over vibrant tissue paper—kids will love popping it! Secure with sparkly stickers.
Pro tip: Practice on a spare book to perfect those sharp folds.

Ten years ago, I published my first children's book. Never thought I'd be an author, let alone publish 25 books! Dreams really do come true. #ChildrensBooks#AuthorLife
The lady who read with her kindle.
The man who reads by the window.
The lady who loved Jane Eyre.
The man who'd always carry a book, reading random phrases.
The lady who reads to the school children.
The pair who compare reads.
Books are part of #carehome life.

Children need human to human engagement and interactions
Children need to read books
Children these days have an inability to read out loud straight through, dangerously shortened attention spans, artificial dopamine kicks, and lack of social skills.
