It's time to celebrate after a year of hard work and great success! Penguin Group (USA)'s New York office will be closed from Thursday, December 24, 2009 - Sunday January 3, 2010, reopening on Monday January 4, 2010.

While we're away, here's a roadmap to help you continue to enjoy the most exciting content in publishing: 

Our newest episodes of From the Publisher's Office include timely holiday treats in the Radio Room, the Reading Room, and the Screening Rooom. In the Radio Room, we have the full audiobook of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, a Radio Room Special featuring Mike Huckabee author of A Simple Christmas, "Tolstoy's Last Year" in Penguin Classics on Air, and Robert Frost's famous poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" is featured in A Cup of Poetry.

In the Screening Room, you can view a great video of Liz Shanks reading "Twas the Night Before Christmas" to some really adorable kids in Penguin Storytime, check out some muscly and scantily clad "Santas", along with our Paranormal authors' holiday wishlists, in the holiday episode of Project Paranormal, and catch up with authors Jacqueline Woodson in YA Central and Napoleon Hill in Tarcher Talks.

And don't forget we feature excerpts from the most exciting new books in the Reading Room. Rachelle Mead's Frostbite and Shadow Kiss are both featured, as well as The Autobiography of Santa Claus by Jeff Guinn and the truly inspiring Stones Into Schools by Greg Mortenson. 

For past episodes of all the shows, visit the archives and definitely check out our very popular Screening Room Specials Ten Essential Penguin Classics and Winnie the Pooh and Return to Hundred Acre Wood.

So, from all of us at Penugin to all of you across the city, the state, the country and the globe, HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
