Thanks to all who supported our 19 PB bios in 2019! We're thrilled to have starred reviews, best lists & awards for our books, but most of all to have kids enjoy & learn from them! BTW they're great holiday gifts: 19PBbios.com <3

So do we! #19PBbios :)
I can’t say it enough...I LOVE picture book biographies!! Once again, I learned about someone I hadn’t known anything about. “Mother of Hubble”, Nancy Grace Roman, persevered and lived her dream as an astronomer. Love the Author’s Note and the timeline in the back matter. (10/19)
