Graphic designed with a blue background, multiple stars and black cats, a poloroid of a child and a cat, and the cover of THE NEW CAT. Excerpted text from a review reads: “Life lessons learned from an older (and furrier) sibling...Lucianovic and Park dive deep into the sweetest aspects of sibling and pet affection. Lucianovic’s understated prose strikes the right note, tender but never sentimental or cloying. It’s Park’s art, however, that makes this a true standout...A twist on both new baby and mortality of pet tales, all the stronger for the merger.” —Kirkus, in a starred review

A graphic with a black background and flames on the side reads: If the National Ambassador of Children’s Literature is not allowed to speak out against book bans, you can. Call your reps and tell them to oppose H.R. 2616, the PROTECT Kids Act, and H.R. 2617, the Say No to Indoctrination Act. These bills will ban books, endanger vulnerable LGBTQ+ students, and unfairly punish schools and parents for protecting these students' privacy and safety. Today is a good day to fight fascism. Includes logos for Authors Against Book Bans and 5calls.org
