MIDDLE GRADE:
- #OwnVoices magical realism, reimagined folk tales, and sweeping, character-driven adventures
- Literary, contemporary stories about tween female friendship and the ins and outs of tweendom (if that’s a word)

i can’t believe i forgot to say—in these most autumnal of falls, i’d love to acquire a #middlegrade or #graphicnovel with strong “over the garden wall” vibes 💀🍁🌕

#MSWL send me your timeless books for middle grade readers that will encourage kids to get off their screens, appreciate the natural world and have real social interactions. (Although a great text message exchange in a book is also fun if it feels real!)

MG (young or mature, w/or w/o illustrations, traditional or graphic novels): adventure plots, fantasy drawing from mythologies outside the Western and/or white canon, classics rebooted, LGBTQIA+ fantasy & magic realism, explorations of subcultures, hidden history. #MSWL

Heartfelt &/or humorous middle grade that is rich & textured in its characterizations, stylistic choices, language, & telling. Give me subplots & side characters & settings that all work to make a story feel sophisticated & fully-realized & ALIVE. #MSWL #MGOooo yes please #mswl

#MSWL - I would love a wilderness story in YA or MG (but especially MG because wilderness stories were so a part of my love of reading at that age).

I may have tackled @LynneKelly the first time I met her because I'm obsessed with her middle grade book SONG FOR A WHALE (Lynne is also just an A+ human so there's that too). If you have a book that feels reminiscent please send it my way! #MSWL

I’m constantly on the lookout for anything that reads like a Studio Ghibli film in both MG and YA (I love them all—especially Porco Rosso, Princess Mononoke, Kiki’s Delivery Service, and Howl’s Moving Castle). #MSWL

Women who aren't what you expect, who have strong or indelible (not necessarily likable) voices. Again, in lit fic or commercial women's fiction; also YA and MG. #MSWL

I just finished rewatching Avatar: The Last Airbender (A PERFECT SERIES), and would love to see an MG with similar humor/stakes! #MSWL
Editor
I'd sell my soul at the crossroads for a Southern Gothic magic-infused MG/YA novel. #MSWL

YA or MG graphic novels that intertwine the text and illustrations (think CHOPSTICKS) or that show a secondary story in the illustrations.
