Hello #kidlit friends. I've compiled 2024 Publishers Marketplace data into this friendly pie chart.

Please note:
- data is for U.S. based publishers
- not all publishers/agents announce every deal
- some deals include multiple books/cats so numbers are approx.
- CB data also includes early readers

EEK my picture book SAMMY & SUNNY’S FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL, written by Nina LaCour, will be coming out July 2025. I loved drawing all these dogs! This book is bright and warm and so funny. I’m so proud of it!
