I love this book and the wonderful stories inside it!

I loved Mayim Bialik's foreword, too. ❤️❤️❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

"Judaism is not about choosing things you always agree with in your religion and clinging to them. Judaism is about seeing the world for what it is and being part of a community that is greater than the sum of its parts."

My new book, Anya and the Nightingale, was chosen as a BookRiot Best Children‘s Book of 2020!!

I stay away from end of the year lists, because it‘s so easy to tie your worth as an author to being on these lists. I didn‘t make any lists lasts year with my debut, and it made me pretty anxious. So this year I didn‘t look at any.

But I got tagged by a friend in this one! So yay for friends! ❤️❤️

LazyOwl Congratulations 💕 3y

This is Sansa Bark, First of Her Name. My office dog and writing buddy! She likes to take naps on my feet while I‘m writing. So thoughtful! #DogsOfLitsy

I‘m crying happy tears as I finish! I am so in love with this book and Simon and Blue HELP WHAT DO I DO WITH ALL THESE FEELINGS!!??

Reading-In-The-Wings I had no idea this was a book first!! Loved the movie! 6y
SofiPasternack Omigosh the book is SO AMAZING! Differs from the movie (as always) but both media are so cute and fluffy and sweet. I 150% rec the book. The emails between Simon and Blue are cuter, there are a couple different characters, and Simon goes on an adventure that isn‘t in the movie at all. Totally worth the read!! (edited) 6y

These books helped my daughter learn to love reading. Now she‘s the kid who stays up late and reads with a flashlight. (She doesn‘t have to. I‘d totally let her turn her lights on. She just likes flashlights.)

Phlamboyant Aww. I was that kid and my daughter is that kid now, too. All the feels. 6y
SofiPasternack Yeah I was the kid that got in trouble for reading at school instead of paying attention to the teacher. IMO it‘s a great thing to get in trouble for! 6y

My 7yo daughter loves this book. Beautifully illustrated, wonderfully told, and a fresh bedtime story with a great lesson.

StephanieGeiser I read this as a child too and it is one of the few kids books that has stayed on my shelf into adulthood. I wish more people knew about it! 6y
SofiPasternack I got it from my daughter‘s Scholastic flyer from school, plus several other cool fairy tale/folklore books. Waaaaaay better than reading Snow White etc for the umpteenth time. 6y
