In My Mailbox / New Crayons: The 2011 Asian Festival of Children's Content Edition

Every Sunday, for the In My Mailbox meme, YA book bloggers share the books they bought, borrowed, or received over the past week. New Crayons is a similar meme that incorporates children's books and books for adults, and focuses on multicultural literature. For In My Mailbox / New Crayons this Sunday, I would like to share the books I bought at the Media Mart, the "bookstore" of the Asian Festival of Children's Content in Singapore. I always look forward to the Media Mart! Where else can I buy children's and YA books from Asia and around the world - without paying exorbitant shipping fees? Here are a few pictures of the Media Mart: Here are the books I bought at the Media Mart this year: 10 Sleepless Sheep for Woolly Nights by Linda Yew (Straits Times Press, 2008) The Singapore Kid written by Jessica Alejandro and illustrated by Pigologist (Autumn Wonders, 2010) The Diary of Amos Lee: Girls, Guts and Glory! written by Adeline Foo and illustrated by Stephanie
