About BC Books Online
BC Books Online was created for anyone interested in BC-published books, and with librarians especially in mind. We'd like to make it easy for library staff to learn about books from BC publishers - both new releases and backlist titles - so you can inform your patrons and keep your collections up to date.
Our site features print books and ebooks - both new releases and backlist titles - all of which are available to order through regular trade channels. Browse our subject categories to find books of interest or create and export lists by category to cross-reference with your library's current collection.
A quick tip: When reviewing the "Browse by Category" listings, please note that these are based on standardized BISAC Subject Codes supplied by the books' publishers. You will find additional selections, grouped by theme or region, in our "BC Reading Lists."

Description
G is for #gluten, which Mom says is bad.
H is for #hipster, just look at your Dad.
With twenty-six Instagram-style photos accompanied by sharp and witty rhyming couplets, this sturdy abecedarian board book is baby’s first glimpse at the world they will one day grow up to inhabit—a world of hashtags, memes, manbuns, quinoa and organically sourced plaid. Forget learning to count or differentiating between farm animals—what modern babies really need to develop is a strong sense of irony. And E is for #eyeglasses, prescription or fake.
Like the wildly popular publishing phenomenon Go the F*** to Sleep, this book is not really for tots. Instead, Baby’s First Hashtag makes a perfect shower gift to amuse soon-to-be and new parents as they make the painful-yet-rewarding transition from skinny jeans and flights of craft beer to burp cloths and puréed yams.
Editorial Reviews

“Here's a book that is as much fun for the parents as it is for their infant or toddler...with interesting photographs and entertaining rhyming couplets...infants and toddlers will enjoy seeing the faces of people while sitting on the lap of their favorite adults, who will be chuckling or maybe even laughing out loud. And that is what the young toddler will remember—the contagious joy of the adult reading the book, linking reading to fun. This gift book for babies and new parents will have both readers and listeners laughing.”
