Just read JULIÁN IS A MERMAID by Jessica Love and my jaw is still on the floor. The art, the dialogue, the sheer magic and beauty and love and life in this story. I want picture books like this! #MSWL

I need to get off Twitter before I'm sucked in by the temptation that is #DVpit. I'm closed to submissions atm because I'm so behind on reading requested ms, but when I reopen (TBD), I'd best be seeing some of these in my query inbox. (kidlit only: YA, MG, PB) #MSWL

#MSWL I am always seeking picture books featuring any elements of diversity! Including but not limited to racially diverse characters, LGBTQ+ themes, unique family arrangements, non-NT characters. #picturebook #kidlit

I love certain messages in PBs and am always seeking LGBTQ+ diverse & neurodiverse voices in PBs. But remember: story needs to be written for KIDS who read those books, not the parents/adults, in order for the message to be absorbed. Make it fun AND informative. #querytip #MSWL

Friendly reminder that picture books, MG, or YA novels about Brasilian culture or protagonists are at the top of my #MSWL ! Very hype to hear that @fsgbooks is publishing O sol na Cabeça by Geovani Martins!

Librarian friends, has there ever been a picture book starring a dog in a cone (am I missing something obvious)? If not...author/illustrators, here is your inspiration. #mswl

#MSWL for picture books. This is the diversity and fun books I NEED more of. @JessieSima can do no wrong and this is my gold standard now for PBs.
