Book announcement over an orange megaphone. Two female headshots accompany the text. BOOK NEWS Michael Green at Marble Press has acquired world rights to Pirate Baby by Monica Acker (I.), illustrated by Susana Soto. In this picture book, Captain Cally takes whatever she fancies and never gives a single thing in return-until she fishes a houseplant from the sea and reluctantly tends to it, allowing them both to grow. Publication is slated for fall 2026; Kaitlyn Sanchez at Bradford Literary represented the author, and Kate Webber at Good Illustration represented the artist.

I cannot wait for you to see the adorable art by @susanasoto.bsky.social and meet our spunky pirate captain in Pirate Baby! Setting sail next fall with @marblepress.bsky.social

A small child dressed as a pirate stands on rocky terrain, gripping a dagger with one hand and gazing with a serious, almost sad expression. The child wears an oversized pirate coat and a large tricorn hat adorned with strange, horned creatures and a stylized skull-and-crossbones symbol. The background suggests a windswept cliffside by the sea under a gloomy sky. The blend of realistic textures and surreal fantasy elements gives the image a whimsical yet eerie tone.

He’s not here to play make-believe—he’s here for treasure and vengeance (but also snacks).
