Interesting quote, and what I believe too #mglit #kidlit … editors say they want “shorter attention-grabbing middle grade that is going to hit that high-interest, low-reading level.” … editors no longer want texts that are more than 50,000 words www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

These three recent queer-inclusive middle grade novels variously explore personal growth, friendship, crushes, gender, and more. Share them with the young people you know (and read them yourself to marvel at the great stories being told today)! #QueerKidLit #BookSky mombian.com/2025/09/10/3...
