FALL SPECIAL EVENTS:
September 27: What’s Up with KidLit?
Publishing Industry Experts Maria Russo, Carter Hasagawa, Kat Brzozowski on crafting stories for young readers
~virtual panel event~
From enchanting picture books to riveting young adult novels, books have the power to turn young people into lifelong readers. But children’s literature has also become a battleground in the culture wars, readership is in deep decline, and AI is everywhere. What is the state of children’s literature today? And what will make your story stand out from the crowd?
This panel features three industry professionals with comprehensive knowledge of the field. Our discussion will provide candid insights into the current children’s literary landscape, evolving children’s publishing trends, and provide practical tips for aspiring writers and insights for parents and educators into the unique challenges and opportunities of children’s publishing today.
If you want a clear understanding of how books make a difference, and how yours can stand out in a competitive field, join us.
