What about anxiously checking query tracker to see how close agents are to being at our query? No? Just me? 🫣

A clay rose by my four year old. I’m seriously impressed! She was so focused and spent about thirty minutes perfecting the flower. She did this entirely on her own by looking at a rose! I see big creative things in her future! 🎨

I've been receiving a lot of 'not a fit for my list'. Wondering if you could shed some light as to what that actually means? (I'll note that as someone with autism, it's hard for me to understand this type of rejection if the book matches the MSWL)

Ugh, that’s not very kind. To take it a step further, we shouldn’t tell anyone they can’t be upset. Period! Doesn’t matter what it’s about. Being sad / angry is a human emotion and we’re allowed to feel it whenever it shows up

Agreed, Lolli is so much fun and mischievous! And I really love her relationship with Tomas. A picture book? WHAT?!?! I cannot wait!! That's awesome, congrats!!

Thanks Andy!! The books are SO much fun. The story is awesome but the voice is what REALLY hooks me! It's so hilarious and down to earth!

Hey Andy! We’re trying to grab books 4-6 and notice Amazon seems to be the only place that carries it in Canada per our search, however, shipping says they won’t be delivered until July. Any chance you know where else in Canada I can grab the books? :)
