I was thrilled to get my first copy of Have You Seen Gordon? which will be arriving in stores this September. This is called a Folded and Gathered because it is not fully bound yet. It does, however, give an amazing preview of what the book will look like. The art by @ohtruth comes to life so much more on the page. Thank you @kendra.levin and the entire @simonandschuster and @randomhousekids teams for bringing this to life.

Ten years ago, I had brain surgery to remove a tumor. If it was not for science and modern medicine, I might not be here today. I am thankful for a decade of amazing experiences with the ones I love.

While it feels strange to celebrate or promote any

While it feels strange to celebrate or promote anything during these very difficult times, I am still so proud to announce that the third book in the Snared series will hit store shelves today! It has been an incredible experience working with @mackidsbooks and @imprintreads for the last four years. I hope the series will give readers an escape from the world.
