From Megan Romer, your About Books & Literature Editor
Happy Spring, everyone! It's shaping up to be a glorious one thus far, and thanks to various social networking sites, I've been enjoying seeing what's blooming all over the country, hearing stories of unseasonably warm days and the outdoor adventures that filled them, and other fun springy stuff.

Good Books to Read in Spring
For all of the glorious sunshine-filled days that Spring has to offer, there are at least five that are rainy. Okay, not quite, but it feels that way sometimes. For those days, you'll need some indoor entertainment, and these books should work nicely.

Classic Poems About Spring
Spring, and its overwhelming feeling of rebirth, has been a hugely popular topic for poets and prose writers for generations. Take a moment and read some of these spring-themed poems -- they'll make you appreciate the season even more.

Children's Books About Growing a Garden
The coming of Spring is also a signal that it's time to get started on this year's garden! My toddler was still a baby last year, and still no help (the opposite of help, actually) in the garden, but this year, I think he might be good for some watering and picking, at least. As always, I think that books are a great way to get kids, even really young ones, interested in all sorts of topics.
