Love this! What's your pub date? I tried looking it up but it's not listed in on-line shops, yet. Looks like our books would be good companion books. #KidsLoveNonfiction #STEM #STEAM

Hi Michelle, I just turned in the final color sketches. I think that they are planning on publishing by the end of 2025, but I would ask the author Karen Jameson. She might have a better idea of the timing. I'd love to read/see your book. I'm a huge jellyfish fan now!

Spring of ‘26.

Woohoo! Congratulations! Your illustrations are lovely. (I remember seeing you post one a while back that I loved).
I am, too!

Can't wait to see your book in April! Also, I'd love to read your ARC and give it a review if you are doing that. 🪼

Awesome book, Michelle! Last I heard it was slated for spring of ‘26.

mariehermansson.bsky.social•40 days ago

I was a bit off there! Thank you for letting us know. I know it's probably changed a couple of times. 😀

karenjameson15.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yes. I have another nonfiction picture book coming in Spring ‘26, so they had to put a little space between the releases.

I'm looking forward to it. Fun fact: Maude Delap, the focus of my book went on to raise moon jellies in captivity!

Amazing!
