Awww, so sweet! @choldenko @kaaauthor wish you could see kids eyes light up when I tell them #2 Dogtown is coming soon!

Is this the best gift ever? It was from Katherine Applegate to celebrate the launch of The Tenth Mistake of Hank Hooperman and the soon to be launch of our second Dogtown book: Mouse and His Dog.

Hey #WritingCommunity
I’m Gennifer Choldenko and I write middle grade novels. This month I published my 18th book: The Tenth Mistake of Hank Hooperman. I'm here because I love to write, and I'm too stubborn to give up no matter what.

Love MAGNOLIA WU! It's quirky, hilarious, heartwarming, with positive messages seamlessly woven into original storyline (lost socks in a laundry?) One of most memorable #mglit titles this year!!

Thanks for sharing! Consistent with my disheartening observations in #publiclibrary that circ of #middlegrade #chapterbooks is down since pandemic.

At his new school, a private one with no state testing, my 7th grader read 6 books in English class this year, and is currently writing a 5-pg paper on the history of jazz—a real paper, w/an outline, notecards, and multiple rounds of revision. Last year.. chronicle.com/article/is-thi…

Remarkable #mglit COYOTE LOST AND FOUND by @DanGemeinhart is "...like lip balm for your soul..." All the feels, more highs than lows. Dynamic characters in robust relationships that gently encourage "clean up your messes." #mustread!
