A4: I wish there were more editors, agents, reviewers, and award committee members with an interest in earth science, physics, and chemistry. Why are nearly all science-themed picture books about animals and life sciences?#BlackinSTEM #scicomm #scbwisummerspec #scbwiEquity
I'm currently closed to queries but I am ALWAYS interested about science themed PBS, including earth science, physics and chemistry! (My second picture book as an author also features the six simple machines - PRINCESSES CAN FIX IT! @PageStreetKids 5/4/21) #MSWL

I would love to see some great picture books for these sciences. I had second grade patrons who wanted these! #MSWL

Today is the perfect day to remind folks that I would love a picture book, fiction or nonfiction, that celebrates Eid (and all of Ramadan)! I love narrative, educational stories that invite lush illustration. #MSWL

If you're thinking of querying me but don't know if your project is a fit, here's some #MSWL framing that should help:For PB, I want 1) content that looks seriously at sociopolitical realities that kids face, ultimately ending with empowerment and hope, 2) stories that teach readers about a new place and/or culture, 3) nonfiction that delights and inspires. Only interested in #ownvoices.

Just a reminder that in the picture book category I am only looking for author-illustrated works.
Not author only.
Not illustrator only.

If you’re a Black children’s book writer and have queried me for a middle grade or YA novel, please resend through the website and use the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter before your query, and it will be read and responded to next week. Open to new queries as well.#MSWL please keep these great submissions coming from Black children’s book writers! I’m also interested in author-illustrators with existing picture book dummies. #BlackVoices find me through the Stimola website through the submission form. 🖤
