I am probably one of the luckiest people in the world – I get to share beautiful brand new books all the time! It’s like a party 365 days a year – and I’m so glad you stopped by to have some cake and sing a Happy Book Birthday welcome to WORDS BETWEEN US, written by Angela Pham Krans and illustrated by Dung Ho and published by HarperCollins TODAY!
Just like the unveiling of a piece of artwork at a museum, the cover reveal of an upcoming picture book is an exciting moment! I’m always thrilled when I get the chance to do that – especially for a book that I’ve seen in early drafts. Hanh Bui is a dear friend – and I couldn’t be happier for her second book in what I know is going to be a long line of titles – she is a prolific writer who pours her heart on the page. And with a cover reveal, the illustrator gets a chance to shine…and Bao Luu’s art is like a beacon of light, radiating warmth and reflecting the emotions of the characters. The book launches from Feiwel and Friends/Macmillan on May 14, 2024…and you are getting the first peek RIGHT NOW! Ready! Set! GO!
