Happy Holidays from KidLit TV

Happy Holidays to you and yours from KidLit TV! 2015 was a wonderful year for KidLit TV and our community. We launched KidLit RADIO, won a Gold Parents Choice Award, celebrated our first birthday, and brought you great children’s literature programming. Thank you for supporting us through this journey.

Please enjoy our 2015 and 2014 kid lit holiday specials with your family and friends during the break.

Watch the 2015 Holiday Special

Former librarian and StoryMakers host Rocco Staino called on several children’s literature experts to share their top holiday and winter picks. Maria Russo (New York Times Book Review), John Schumacher AKA Mr. Schu (Scholastic), and John A. Sellers (Publishers Weekly) read hundreds of picture books every year, speak with thousands of authors and illustrators, teachers, librarians.

If you’ve ever wanted to know what Santa was like as a baby, how a young refugee spends his first holiday in New York City, or if it’s possible to spread the holiday spirit through the scent of a meal, then you should tune in to this very special episode. Trust us, it’s marvelous.
