I’m thrilled to reveal the cover of the next book in the Lakefront universe…Just Jasmine!
Just Jasmine comes out in May, 2019. I hope you like it as much as I loved writing it. It carries a theme that’s loosely based on real events, one that’s so incredibly universal in the middle school world: exclusion. But don’t worry…it’s also packed with plenty of humor!
You can pre-order Jasmine here.
And more great news: Emmie and Izzy will soon come in a boxed set! You can pre-order that here.
I recently received a sweet letter from a reader, along with this incredible piece of art. I started to write her back, but I accidentally threw out the envelope with her address (argh!). Ava W. from Maryland, if you’re reading this, please email me your address!
This speaks for itself. I couldn’t be more thrilled. EMMIE and IZZY are doing phenomenally, and I have you readers to thank. So…THANK YOU!!
I was recently traveling abroad with my family to Spain and Paris, and…hey, look what I stumbled on: EMMIE books in Madrid, Barcelona, and Paris! Si and oui!
I’m on the radio! Listen to my interview about IZZY on Cleveland’s “Here & Now” featuring the “Sound of Applause” (WCPN 90.3).
So excited to be part of this year’s acclaimed Ohioana Book Festival on April 14 in Columbus, OH. Click here for detailed info and here for festival authors.
Besides signing copies of Invisible Emmie and Pajama Diaries books, I’ll also be part of a panel for tween/teen readers:
1:00 pm – 1:45 pm: Learn from an expert panel of illustrators as they discuss all things connected to creating pictures for books – Joe Sutphin, Mark and Mary Willenbrink, Christina Wald, Terri Libenson (graphic artist)
Hope to see you there!
Gearing up for a very busy spring. Pretty soon I’ll be going on tour for my new book, Positively Izzy, which debuts May 1. I will post that schedule as soon as it’s locked in. For now, I hope you’ll pre-order a copy!
In the meantime, I look forward to presenting Invisible Emmie at Elyria Public Library on Monday, April 9, at 6:30 pm. Click here for registration. Hope to see you!
In other EMMIE news, this is pretty great. Listed among Barnes & Noble’s recent Top Graphic Novels!
