I’m super excited to record today’s episode because - Zooming in all the way from the U.K. - is award‑winning author and illustrator Katie Kirby! Katie is the creator of the hilarious and super relatable middle-grade LOTTIE BROOKS series! The LOTTIE BROOKS illustrated novels have taken the U.K. by storm, selling over a million copies, and now #mglit readers here in the U.S. are getting to meet and love Lottie too. Episode dropping soon!

In the meantime, I highly recommend checking out this fun, relatable, and award winning #kidlit series!
