A5 Not nonfiction but @michaelleali upcoming release THE CIVIL WAR OF AMOS ABERNATHY again reinforces the ABSENCE of so many voices in history including our LGBQTAI+ voices and now think about. #MGBookChat

Feels weird to say since I made them, but I love my covers for my MG GN's! Adventurous kids saving the world is my JAM!
A7) Just finishing up Arrow to the Moon by Emily X.R. Pan, then will dive into The Last Mapmaker by @soontornvat. #MGBookchat
A3) Not a trend, but I always want the "direction" of the cover art to lead the eye toward the direction the book opens. For The Guardians of Zoone, I specifically asked for the art to be flipped so that the ship was pointing right. (Art by Evan Monteiro) #MGBookchat
Hi #MGBookChat ! I feel like I lucked out SO hard with my cover, and I'd love to share a little of the process, from sketch to final. I love the balance of all the concepts in the final cover!
A1: I love browsing by cover. Two that come to mind right away are STARFISH by @AuthorLisaFipps and VIOLETS ARE BLUE by @Barbaradee2. Both of these books lived up to their beautiful covers. #MGBookChat

Just finished Lia Park and the Missing Jewel by @authorjennayoon and am starting An Arrow to the Moon by Emily XR Pan. #MGBookchat
I'm riveted by the story and narration of
WOLF HOLLOW
by @LaurenWolkBooks narrated by @ECardRankin

A6 INDIGENOUS PERSPECTIVES! There is so much to learn and so many interesting stories. As always it provides opportunities to learn about other ways of knowing and allows others to see themselves in a story (looking at you @DDSBSchools) #MGBookChat

#MGBookMarch Day 31: Next on the TBR pile
I'm sad that this fun month of book celebration is coming to an end. Up next for me in the book stack is THE SEA IN WINTER (@ByChristineDay). I loved I CAN MAKE THIS PROMISE, so I'm really excited for this one.
Today on Mr Ripley's Enchanted Books we have the best children's books published in the US - March 2022. Time to find new books to enjoy. COME and check them all OUT! 📚📚📚https://t.co/eiZJmDdR7i... #BOOKS #KIDSBOOKS #READING #FANTASY #LIDSLIT #MGBOOKS #WritingCommunity
#MGBookMarch Day 26: Favorite genre
Not a genre, exactly, but I am drawn to books that make me laugh & cry concurrently and give me that yearning-for-something feeling. Like these…
Seeing as we currently on day 19 of #middlegrademarch If your after some adventure and mystery then check out my novel Trail of the Cursed Cobras #middlegradefiction #middlegradebookpile #middlegradebooks#middlegrademagic #Kidlit #mglit #mgbooks #mgreads #middlegradelit
#MGBookMarch Day 16: I feel lucky to have all of Kate DiCamillo’s books in my life, but LOUISIANA’S WAY HOME is one of my very favorites.
Day 15 #MGBookMarch I love this CDN mystery series by @scissorhouse narrated by @sarah_english . A fitting tribute to Agatha Christie: it's smart with impeccable research & has the dastardly deeds readers want. If you haven't read this one I highly recommend.
Day #15 of #MGBookMarch - great series. It's interesting as I don't read a lot of #mglit series and I'm not sure why that is. I read way more #YA series! Enjoy these!
The Misewa Series by @DaveAlexRoberts
Supernatural Investigations by @bb_alston
City Spies by @JamesPonti
Currently reading The Sea in Winter by @ByChristineDay. Fell in love with the cover, and am now falling in love with the text.
(Admission: unless it's a rec, I pick books based on title and cover, and never read the back cover in advance.)

@Jodyjlittle My book The Secret of Zoone has a character who's 11 (though I don't think we ended up explicitly stating that in the book). It's a fantasy that would fit that age group (I think). #MGBookChat
