This looks wonderful! Can't wait to read it, @Evan_Griffith
Coming May 2024 🌳 THE STRANGE WONDERS OF ROOTS is a story about trees, small towns, chosen family, and all the terror and beauty of letting ourselves be known. I can't wait to share it with you. harpercollins.com/products/t…

Yes! I cry every time! First time, while working in our local library. Gorgeous story. And Jason Chin's artwork is perfect.
I’m helping my youngest organize his books and just read @AndreaYWang’s beautiful book WATERCRESS. I’ve read it many times and still cry!

Nothing compares. Oh, my heart.
Nothing Compares 2 U. Heart broken hearing the news of the passing of Sinéad O’Connor, such an inspiration

Indeed.
Trying to write and publish kids’ books without reading lots and lots of current kids’ books is like trying to be a part of a conversation without listening to what anyone else is saying. No one really likes hearing from that person…
