#kidlit #pb #authors - today's the last day of Open Submissions for @CardinalRulePrs .

No specific #MSWL but I'd really love a story that meets all the guidelines below and is told with energy and humor.

For #kidlit , I’m focusing more on middle grade and young adult this year 🫡👍🏽#mswl

Just updated my #MSWL for anyone who wants to take a gander. Still looking for the next fantasy or sci-fi MS that pushes my buttons. I like a little darkness, a harrowing adventure. Also always looking for NF in a bunch of categories.

looking for:
🥸 laugh-out-loud, wry, absurd PBs
👩🏽‍🦳 contemporary, high-concept upmarket MG and YA focused on stakes, and emotion
🩷 romance with BIPOC voices
🏠 uncommon or intergenerational relationships

Looking for a more YA fantasy-either urban/contemporary or second-world!

I think this needs to be a picture book …like, immediately! 🐭🥰

4. Adding on chapter books (5-15k words)

Really interested in stories that teach older kids about life through adventures.

Examples: The Magic Tree House series, Yusuf and Yusra's Holiday Dilemma series, Jeronimo Stilton, Naruto (in book format)

3. FABLES

If you have stories that are folklore lite, I want them! They can be imagined or real stories from a culture.

Examples: 1001 Arabian Nights, Aesop's Fables

2. MORALS and LESSONS

I'm keen on publishing books that teach children about virtues (e.g., forgiveness, patience), emotions, and mistakes through a fun or engaging story.

Examples: The Boy Who Cried Wolf, My Hijab Is My Crown, Who Will Make Iftar With Me?

1. COMMUNITY

I'm the perfect one for you if your PB focuses on teaching children how to navigate this world with kindness, compassion, and sympathy toward themselves OR others via a story.

Examples: Brown is Beautiful, Eyes That Kiss in the Corners, My Block Looks Like

For the first time, I will be open to select picture book submissions for Shush or Sorra Books (on top of chapter books)!

What I'm looking for — a quick #MSWL 🧵

High-stakes middle grade fantasy and adventure like SKANDAR AND THE UNICORN THIEF; THE SWIFTS; SMALL SPACES; and THE MARVELLERS.

I’ll be open to queries February 1-February 29
