5. A focus on popular characters—from all media: Kids love to read books about characters they know and recognize from books, movies and television shows. Titles centered around those popular characters (like "Fancy Nancy," David Shannon’s “David” or "Toy Story" characters) are top sellers.
6. The shift in picture books: Publishers are publishing about 25-percent to 30-percent fewer picture book titles than they used to as some parents want their kids to read more challenging books at younger ages. The new trend is leading to popular picture book characters such as "Pinkalicious," "Splat Cat" and "Brown Bear, Brown Bear" showing up in Beginning Reader books.
