Bundled Extra: First Second Releases Array Of Covers For Books In Winter 2017 Season

First Second sent out a press release late last week with an array of covers for their Winter 2017 season. I think the books had already largely been announced, although maybe not with that much visual information in one place. It's an interesting-looking season, and very all-ages oriented it seems, maybe slightly more than has even been the case in general since their readjustment a few years in. In fact, more than half the season's list are early books in series.

You can't argue with the success of most of these endeavors, though, and this season brings with it some bigger names in the all-ages category like Faith Erin Hicks and Matthew Loux. That Mama Cass bio looks kind of fun, in part because I can't imagine her being the subject of a biography right this second without the focused interest of a creator. The Shiga is fun and filthy.
