OMG. So precious!!!

On my beach walk -- tried to send it back to the ocean, but I'm afraid this beautiful, tiny, creature was at the end of it's days.

The real deal right here!

Awwww, Katie Kennedy. You're the best! 🥰

So much thanks to all those at Hong Kong Battle of the Books who put this list together, and included Six Feet Below Zero. I couldn't be more grateful!!

Between family happenings & a monster virus that refused to leave my body, it's been a while—but I'm back to share some exciting news! Six Feet Below Zero is included in the 2025-26 Battle of the Books, Hong Kong, Primary Division. And just look at the amazing company my book is keeping!

Hurray!!! 🥂🍾🎉

Congratulations on the launch of Fairy Tale Road, @christinafarley.bsky.social!!! Love romcoms and I can't wait to read it!

My trip to Missouri to accept the 2024 Mark Twain Readers Award for Six Feet Below Zero was one of the coolest experiences of my life. @maslonline is an amazing organization that does its state proud. School librarians rock! Enormous thanks to everyone at @maslonline and the students of Missouri!

Thank YOU, Sheila! It's SUCH an honor that Six Feet Below Zero won the 2024 Mark Twain Readers Award. Meeting and chatting with all the amazing Missouri school librarians @maslonline.bsky.social these past couple of days, and accepting the award tonight—there's no place I would have rather been!

YAY! Finally fixed! ✔️

After @wildinkpublishing.bsky.social acquired the rights to republish BUTTERFLY GIRL, we had to unravel a red tape delay on Amazon.

I’m happy to share that pre-orders are now open! 🦋

Yes, sometimes publishing dreams really do come true. 📚🥰

Keep checking your immunity for CP, Melissa. It took me 4 inoculations to reach immunity levels… and the doctors couldn’t believe it.

In an effort to upgrade my presentations from Power Point, I tried learning Prezi. 🤣 What a disaster THAT was! Now I'm on to Canva, which is going much better, but still, it's step by step and slow progress. I need an EASY button!

What a wonderful interview with @beabirdsong.bsky.social. Authors, teachers, you’ll enjoy this!

Counting the days!

Yay!!!! 🥳🎉 I'm so happy GOAT IS THE G.O.A.T is finally here!

Congratulations and happy book birthday to the uber-talented, @beabirdsong.bsky.social. I can't wait to get my hands on GOAT IS THE G.O.A.T. !!!!! 🎉

Loved this show!

B/w illustration of a person in silhouette being pushed out a window. Text reads: THE HORN BOOK calls THE TONTINE CAPER a feisty puzzle mystery with a hearty dollop of humor. The inept murder-minded antics ... are just one example of the hilarious hijinks sprinkled throughout this farce, which registers surprise after surprise until, in a final sleight of hand, Salerni delivers a heartwarming ending that few will see coming.

Thanks to @thehornbook.bsky.social for this scrumptious review of THE TONTINE CAPER! 🎉🎈

In celebration, I am sharing one of the hilarious illustrations by @mattschu.bsky.social. The book releases on April 22!

@smorgridge.bsky.social

Btw there is a third starred review! Booklist called it “Powerful reading for a crucial moment.” 🌟🌟🌟 🤩

Back from a writing retreat and crossing fingers the new optimism about my current WIP sticks. 🤞

With a cast of unique characters of all ages ... fast-paced chapters ... and intriguing mysteries to unwind and unlock, The Tontine Caper brings Salerni's unique voice, lilting prose, and curiosity to this historical mystery. ~ Booklist

#BookSky
The first professional review for The Tontine Caper has lots of nice things to say! 😊 Thank you, Booklist! Can't wait to share this book, with its hilarious illustrations by @mattschu.bsky.social and interactive back matter suggested by the brilliant @smorgridge.bsky.social to MG readers.

I needed something to push me to make my first post here, and a second starred review for BANNED TOGETHER is just the ticket. I am so proud of this incredible book. 🌟🌟 www.publishersweekly.com/9780823458301
