For a number of reasons (the economy, the demise of the independent bookstore, etc.), book tours are far less common. But fortunately, we have entered a new, digital age, which allows endless possibilities for book promotion. Last season we published Meet Me under the Ceiba. A novel by the Panama-based author Silvio Sirias. A ten-day tour w...

Tuesday, January 26, 2010. Cisneros, Cisneros, AND Cisneros. The dust seems to have settled just ten days after the Texas State Board of Education voted on changes to be made to public school textbooks. In light of certain changes, it becomes more apparent that our mission to continue making the names of Latino writers known to children in. And beyond is more important than ever. From the San Antonio Express-News. We read, “ Textbook vote boots Cisneros. And author Sandra Cisneros. The business of removi...

Friday, 25 June 2010. In an attempt to...
