A give-for-graduation inspirational picture book #mswl

#MSWL: A #PB bio about the beloved Toni Morrison written by a #POC ✍🏾✍🏿

#MSWL I'm dying for stories by and about Jews of color. Picturebooks, middle grade, young adult- please send them over!

A PB about envy or jealousy or wanting what someone else has #MSWL

#MSWL - #PB: Looking for irresistible voice and books that either make me laugh out loud (no potty humor though!) or tug at the heart strings. Always want to see diverse perspectives, too!

And #artistsofcolor, I'd love to rep you! Send me your portfolios. I work with artists who want to do #GN and #PB who don't necessarily want to write. #MSWL

Still looking for a picture book about a cat and its enemy/best friend the Roomba. #MSWL

#MSWL Funny picture books in the vein of Mo Willems.

Spooky PBs! 👻🖤✨💀🎃

Ghosts, haunted houses, cobwebs. I would die for a picture book about rusalka.

See How to Make Friends with a Ghost for my spooky book crush, as well as an upcoming picture book called The Ugly Doodles by my client @vwicker2478. #MSWL

Hi #MSWL day! I’m actively looking for more middle grade and young adult, as well as graphic novels and picture books. Here are a few things I’m especially eager to find in my inbox (thread):

Now, I really want a PB that reminds me of Silly Songs with Larry. I am blaming this one on @Alex_Borbolla for her #MSWL of baby manatees.

Mermaids! PB, MG, YA, GNs.✨🧜‍♀️ I'm not looking for an epic fantasy, or a story in which someone discovers they’re a mermaid, or a romance in which a mermaid falls in love with a human. I'd love for it to be something a non-genre reader could get into. #MSWL

I'm looking for disability rep across the board--YA! MG! PB! Fiction! Nonfiction! And everything in between! #MSWL

Funny PBs! I loved Maria the Matador, Dragons Love Tacos, The Bad Seed, I Don’t Like Koala, Miss Hazeltime’s Home for Shy and Fearful Cats, Brunhilda’s Backwards Day, and Even Superheroes Make Mistakes. #MSWL

Magical PBs! A few favorites: The Night Gardener, The Antlered Ship, Ocean Meets Sky, The Bear and the Piano, Remarkables, Lights on Cotton Rock, The Fantastic Flying Books of Morris Lessmore, Lola Shapes the Sky, Dream Animals. #MSWL

I just...really want a picture book about dogs. Or manatees. Or both. #MSWL

PBs that reflect contemporary families + their real life experiences. Examples: Hair Love, My Papi Has a Motorcycle, Tell Me a Tattoo Story, Honeysmoke, Under My Hijab, Alma, Julian is a Mermaid. #MSWL

And now I’ll start listing off some specifics! At the top of my #MSWL: PB author/illustrators w/ a very distinctive signature look.

Some of my faves: Juana Martinez-Neal, Vashti Harrison, the Fan Brothers, Emily Winfield Martin, David Litchfield, Anne Lambelet, Sophie Blackall.

For #mswl day, here are my true loves: #SFF (adult and #YA), #ownvoices #nf #mg, #pb, #history and #science for kids, or...surprise me. Thank you for building #mswl , @jsinsheim

#MSWL for PBs here: narrative non-fiction, that is NOT biographies. Think SKULLS by Blair Thornburgh, or PEOPLE DON'T BITE PEOPLE by Lisa Wheeler. Give me interesting perspectives and facts and knowledge!
