So you might have seen this in Publishers Marketplace (click to make big!):
That’s right! The Summer of Lost and Found has a new home. And it will still be in bookstores in the first half of 2016 (right now, it looks like a May publication date). I am so excited to be working with editor extraordinaire Alyson Heller and the team at Aladdin/Simon & Schuster. Aladdin is one of the imprints that made a huge impact on me as a young reader–I have fond memories of looking for the colophon on the spines of some favorite books.
(Yes, even as a kid I was into learning about different publishing imprints. It would’ve been tween me’s dream come true to publish an Aladdin book!)
More information to come, but for now I’ll just say how grateful and excited I am that Summer will be on shelves next year.
*And by “I,”of course I mean my fantastic agent, Suzie Townsend. I’m incredibly thankful to her (and everyone at New Leaf Literary) for their support and enthusiasm, and skill at finding perfect homes for their clients’ books.
That’s awesome, Rebecca! Can’t wait to read it! ☺
Thanks, Jaime!
Congratulations! My daughter, Gabriella, cannot wait to read your newest novel!
