Sliding into the DMs of book professionals

We believe that understanding the world of children’s books means listening to the people who make it happen.

Writers, illustrators, editors, agents, and scholars all shape the stories that reach young readers — each bringing unique values, experiences, and perspectives. In this series, we slide into the inboxes of book professionals to ask about their journeys, inspirations, and the challenges that define their work.
Through honest, curious conversations, we aim to uncover what drives the field and how it continues to evolve.

Join us as we chat, question, and celebrate the creative minds behind children’s literature — one message at a time.
