November Childlit Book Releases

As I've said before, I collect my monthly pandemic book release material from social media. This month, I've seen a lot fewer books being discussed. I usually have to do two posts because I collect so much material. Back when I did the Connecticut Children's Lit Calendar, November and December were very quiet months for author appearances. So these may be months when far fewer books are published. Though you'd think new books would sell well during the December holidays, and, therefore, that would be a desirable publishing time. I know fall is when "big" books are published. Winter must not be for anyone.
