I continue to feel lucky to be working w/ @SimonKIDS editor @jpchanda. Justin is SO brilliant at helping me see the bigger picture. He channels my voice (never tries to push his), asks good questions, engages in my story, genuinely cares about young readers.
A very HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all you moms out there! 💐💛🌸🌻🌼🌺
