Sneak Peek Into a Glittery New Title

Kirsten W. Larson
Illustrator Katherine Roy and I can’t yet share the cover for our February 2023 book together, THE FIRE OF STARS, but look at these jacket proofs with glittery gold foil. This parallel story of star formation told alongside the formation of astrophysicist Cecilia Payne is really going to SHINE. Chronicle Kids Books is going all out. 🤩💫

You’re Invited to the A TRUE WONDER Book Launch 10/5

Kirsten W. Larson
It’s party time!

A TRUE WONDER will be out in the world in just six weeks, and I couldn’t be more excited. Illustrator Katy Wu and I will be doing a virtual event through Once Upon A Time Bookstore on Tuesday, Oct. 5 at 5 p.m. Pacific/ 8 Eastern. This event is completely free, and I hope you’ll join in the fun.

Please preregister through Once Upon a Time, and they’ll send you the Zoom link. 

BONUS: If you preorder a copy of the book anywhere books are sold, let me know, and I’ll enter you to win the A TRUE WONDER tee shirt. (Drawing will take place 9/29/21. US entries only with apologies to my international friends.)

Once Upon A Time EXCLUSIVE: Order here, and get a free 6×9 art postcard designed by illustrator Katy Wu. And I’ll autograph your copy.

Cover Reveal: A TRUE WONDER: The Comic Book Hero Who Changed Everything

Kirsten W. Larson
I’m thrilled to share the cover for A TRUE WONDER: The Comic Book Hero Who Changed Everything, illustrated by Katy Wu. The book releases 9/28/21 from HMH/Clarion. You can preorder now wherever books are sold or mark it “to read” on Goodreads, and you’ll receive an email when it’s out. I’m so excited about this behind-the-scenes look at the creation and evolution of Wonder Woman, the iconic character who has inspired generations of girls and women as a symbol of female strength and power. For ages four and up.
