We got another starred review!! Thank you Booklist~ β
Sea Legs comes out on Feb 4 from Scholastic/Graphix!
The text is even bigger. "Age-appropriately narcissistic" Janey sweats a lot. "Um. A-Actually."
The text is bigger. "Age-appropriately narcissistic" Janey backs up, super awkward, blushing now. "My mom wants me. I'm dehydrated. I have to go."
The text is bigger. "Age-appropriately narcissistic" From off panel, a word balloon says "Pretend you're important." Janey strikes an awkward pose. "Important."
Astrid is on the verge of laughter, she can't hold it in. "Janey. You are... SO age-appropriately narcissistic" Janey poses, triumphant. "I KNOW." with a big WAHAHA laugh in the background.
STAR OF THE SHOW JANEY
School Library Journal review quote: "Janey is just like any other kid:"
"...curious, obstinate,"
"age-appropriately narcissistic"
The text is bigger. "Age-appropriately narcissistic" Janey has three dots over her head as she looks at a phone, sweating.

πΉπ»ICYMI - Yesterday I got to announce my next graphic novel, Free Piano (Not Haunted).
This book is the book of my heart.
A spooky, musical adventure about chasing dreams, finding your voice, and navigating family and fame.
Your support of this one would mean the world to me.

a page from the comic "Tear It Down" for Overwatch's release of a new hero, Hazard. Hazard, a large white man with white spiky hair and punk-stylized body mods, is drawn hanging out of the back of a hover truck with his compatriots, the Phreaks. Boomslang, a black woman with braids and neon stylings + body modifications, and Susannah, a fat, short omnic with rose tattoos and a trenchcoat, fire futuristic looking guns while two other Phreaks hang back mysteriously in the shadows of the box truck. The truck tears through a futuristic looking city backlit by a giant moon in the night sky. The colors are bright neon purples, greens, pinks and blues
TEAR IT DOWN!

So thrilled to announce a new deal, a new graphic novel featuring Giancarlo Esposito (aka "Moff Gideon" for those who partake of the Star War), written with Matt Wheeler and drawn by Jay Martin!
Every time a rando book karen emails a literary agent about something a client said on social media, an angel gets its wings.
First of all it's not a "distraction" that state governments are banning books.
Second, the people banning books are *also* gutting public education! It's the same fucking problem!
