Adorable dog Zelda, dressed like Sherlock Holmes, gazes at the camera while lying next to a copy of DETECTIVE DOGS. In one paw, she holds a magnifying glass while three spotted lanternflies scurry across the floor in front of her. Outstanding Science Trade Book and Best STEM Book seals can be seen on the left.
THANK YOU to the National Science Teaching Association and Children's Book Council for naming DETECTIVE DOGS an Outstanding Science Trade Book *and* a Best STEM Book for 2026!
Thx to @alexace.bsky.social for the photo. ๐

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

and PSA for those of you out there who are still dreaming of selling a book: I first encountered this manuscript in our slush! Kelly very deservedly got an agent before I offered, but the book had potential from its very first iteration and *thatโs* what got it though the door, so donโt give up!

Iโm staying with family in Mexico through the end of the year and hoping to get some much-needed rest. Itโs so nice to be able to think of my beautiful country as a refuge, and I grieve all the years I wasted as a teenager feeling ashamed of where Iโm from

Two incredible books have book birthdays today of all days. They are both very timely, reminding us that science is important and silence in the face of fascism/Nazis is complicity. Vote today! @andreabrownlit.bsky.social @timmccanna.bsky.social @ellaschwartz.bsky.social
