Send me a breakout picture book character! #mswl

For picture books, I’m looking for narratives that center joy, humor, silliness, curiosity, and imagination. #mswl

We're back from break, which means agents are open to queries & editors are looking for projects to acquire! I’m excited for the beautiful, memorable PB, CB, MG, & YA manuscripts I’ll get to read & consider in 2020. Adding my #mswl to the mix!

#Picturebook characters: I love a good curmudgeon/contrarian who is softened in an unexpected way. #MSWL
