Opening up our @DA_Childrens submissions for 2019! If you're working on an #ownvoices #MG adventure with an unusual mythology, a diverse #YA that's as funny as Louise Rennison, some ground-breaking children's #nonfiction #PB or ANYTHING ELSE #kidlit send it my way #MSWL

I'd also love to see more high concept picture book manuscripts - give me clever, witty and/or hysterical but with a heart. #mswl

This year, I'd love to see more trade non-fiction for children and teens that goes beyond a traditional biography! Show me science, history, cultural movements, our planet, etc. in ways I haven't seen before! (bonus points if it's a graphic novel!) #NonFiction #pb #mg #ya #mswl

I am dying for a commercial heartfelt picture books #MSWL

Yess #mswl

#MSWL This is the kind of nonfiction ideas for picture books I am intrigued by: washingtonpost.com/news/magazine/…

Day 15 of #25DaysofMSWL: commercial picture books like Jessie Sima, Dan Santat, or Molly Idle. #MSWL

Is there already a picture book out there about the Icelandic tradition of Jolabokaflod? If not... #MSWL

"Illustrated picture books (by professional illustrators) that are high concept and character-driven or nonfiction-based.” @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation/

Also, CHICKENS. I am dying for that chicken picture book. I’ll know it when I read it, I think. #MSWL

Clearly I love animal protagonists, but humans welcome, too 😂 #MSWL As a rule, not one for appliances or food as the main character. It’s just not for me.

I’m looking for picture books like Elise Parsley, Tammi Sauer and Ryan T Higgins. I prefer humorous, silly or witty picture books. Things kids (okay I) can read over and over again and still laugh. #MSWL

Thinking of sending me your picture book biography? I prefer unconventional narratives with lots of illustration potential. 😊

The baby is carrying a plush porg and chasing the corgi around the apartment, so if you're writing The Corg & the Porg picture book, please reach out. #MSWL

*looks at @DelilahSDawson* honestly, I'm counting on you.

Day 9 of #25DaysofMSWL: I want commercial picture books with re-readiblity and strong writing. #MSWL

I love the idea that magic could be lurking in our world, if only we knew where to look. Have such a story (PB, MG, YA, adult speculative/horror)? Please send it my way! #MSWL
