Anonymous asked: What are the most exciting children's books out at the moment?
True, self-aggrandising story: when I was in 4th grade, my school librarian spotted me reading Les Miserables and gave me a list of more age-appropriate children’s books that she thought I should be reading, because she was concerned that I was missing out on my childhood.
Obviously this made me even more determined to read age-inappropriate books. So I haven’t really read any children’s books since then and thus have a lack of awareness of any that have been recently published. I’m sorry!
I do, however, recommend the impeccable taste of my friends Jodie Marsh and Stephanie Thwaites, who are both literary agents specialising in children’s books.
