    Just in time to celebrate May the 4th this weekend, we’re launching a brand new Tumblr: Star Wars x Chronicle Books. These are the GIFs you’re looking for…

    starwarschroniclebooks:

    From tea parties to teaching Leia how to fly a TIE fighter, regulating the time she spends talking with friends via R2-D2’s hologram, and making sure Leia doesn’t leave the house wearing only a skirted metal bikini, Vader’s parenting skills are put hilariously to the test in Vader’s Little Princess, Jeffrey Brown’s irresistible follow-up to the breakout bestseller, Darth Vader™ and Son.

    Order your copy today for 30% off + Free Shipping at ChronicleBooks.com!

          Every day, scores of people make the switch to reading ebooks, but my co-worker, Alison Presley, realized that almost no one knows how they’re made. And so budding gumshoe that she is, she hiked up two floors and interviewed me and my co-worker, Kerri, to get to the bottom of things.

              This is adorable. [via @RonCharles]


              It is more than adorable.  It is the proper way for young readers to communicate with writers—or narrators—whom they wish to contact.  I can only hope that readers of The Templeton Twins Have an Idea choose to write to me this way—on a piece of paper the size of a bath sheet, in large block letters.  Bravi, Mrs. Reed’s Fifth Grade Class.

                Et tu, Tumblr?  It is not enough, that I must endure the “pestering” of the fans of Mr. Ellis Weiner?  Now I must be subjected to the pesters of the public at large?  Oh very well.  Do your worst, public at large!

                      The Digital Future of Books: What is a “Book”? chroniclebooks.com

                      Not so very long ago, we knew what a book was. It was printed on paper. It was roughly 350 pages. And it had a cover. You could sign the front page, lend it to a neighbor, and keep it on a shelf. Now, with the explosion of digital content, it’s not so easy to say what constitutes a book.
