It's really special when both the top and honor spot of any given award go to your members! Congratulations to @rajanilarocca.bsky.social & @viviankirkfield.bsky.social for their #SCBWI Golden Kite wins in the nonfiction for younger readers category! So proud of you both.
★ THE SECOND LIFE OF SNAP, a “succinct and immersive” futuristic middle grade novel by Erin Entrada Kelly, is an “affirming contemplation of mortality and the necessity of community”
