"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! ❤️❤️
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
It took me a really long time to get my ish together and order the STBA stickers. Because uhhh 2020 AMIRITE? But here they are! Looking so very shiny! Should I put one on my laptop, orrrrrr...
Picnics are always better when you take along a book about goats (and also dragons)!
My book is a real thing!! It‘s wild to hold it in my hands and be able to flip through. It will be in stores on September 24th aaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!
Blurb:
11-year-old Jewish farmer Anya teams up with the village idiot to save the last dragon in Kievan Rus‘ from a cruel Viking and the tsar of Kiev.
Yummy food, yummy book!
