Mysteries

On the list for School Librarians someone shared the CNN interview with Chris Van Allsburg on his newest title, 'The Chronicles of Harris Burdick' [picture from CNN]. It is the fleshing out in word of the 'Mysteries of Harris Burdick'.

What else could I find on this newest title by Chris Van Allsburg?
Going to GALILEO
..selecting Databases A-Z
....choosing L
......picking Literature Resource Center (Gale).

The Gale search page is intuitive. The results are divided into groups with a tab for each division. There are 99 reviews for Chris Van Allsburg.

The Nov 13, 2011 New York Times Book review by Leonard S Marcus is the first result in Literature Resource Center. You did notice it's dated Nov 13, 2011? I am impressed with how fast the various vendors are at getting current information in their databases but this seems to be extraordinarily quick!
