Forget the cover controversy, because inside the New Yorker is a great article about the formidable Anne Carroll Moore vs. Stuart Little. I love getting the behind-the-scenes scoop on the industry like this, seeing how children's books came into their own, with the help of such legendary women as Anne Carroll Moore and Ursula Nordstrom (and many others).
My favorite detail, though, might be the "Not recommended for purchase by the expert" stamp. Such power!
I hope people keep talking away about how offended/not offended they are by the cover, so that more and more pick it up and stumble across this article.
