I’m taking a class in children’s book publishing this semester at NYU. We’ve read picture books, middle grade, young adult, you name it.
I took the class the learn about the editing side of the biz…but the more I learn about children’s fiction and non-fiction, the more I’d like to take a stab at writing it.
The interesting twist is that, even though the books are for kids, the parents are the ones who buy and read them. So that’s why books like these are bestsellers.
Hey — maybe I can do this.

Hahaha! Those books sound hilarious! As a former kindergarten teacher, I probably couldn’t have read them in class, but one of my favorite “subversive” children’s authors has to be Jon Sceska. The True Story of the Three Little Pigs was a classic! Same with the Stinky Cheese Man! Enjoy the class….sounds amazing!😀
