April 2006

Each month, Kidsreads.com will be spotlighting some of the books that are newly available in paperback. This is the perfect opportunity to catch up on the titles you may have missed when they originally released in hardcover --- or re-read past favorites.

April's roundup of New in Paperback titles includes THE OPAL DECEPTION, which marks the grimmest turn of events yet in Eoin Colfer's Artemis Fowl series; REGARDING THE SINK by Kate Klise, the hilarious sequel to the bestselling REGARDING THE FOUNTAIN told in letters, newspaper articles, and BEAN-mails; and THE TALE OF DESPEREAUX, Kate DiCamillo's Newbery Medal-winning book about "a Mouse, a Princess, Some Soup, and a Spool of Thread."
