Sarah Lynne ReulThe launch of THE BREAKING NEWS!
Today’s the day my debut picture book, THE BREAKING NEWS, is finally out in the world!
To celebrate, I wrote a new post over at Writer’s Rumpus about the incredible support I’ve received from our wonderful kidlit community.
More info on press coverage, reviews and ordering below.
We’ll also be celebrating with a book launch party at Porter Square Books tonight (April 10th, 2018) at 7pm – hope to see you there !
Praise for THE BREAKING NEWS:
“An absolute-must for most libraries.” – School Library Journal
“…a useful classroom and parental tool in tough times.” – The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books (STARRED review)
“…the heavily outlined images are steady and solid, including the closing spreads of the girl and her family planting flowers, which circle back to a scene at the beginning, affirming the resilience that can result when small acts are focused on community.” – The New York Times
*A Scholastic Teacher’s magazine summer 2018 reading list pick*

Thanks Aunt Judy :)!
Congratulations, Sarah! Your book will fill a need in many children’s lives and is sure to be extraordinarily successful! Keep on writing and drawing; your work makes a wonderful contribution to children’s lit.
Thanks so much, Paula!
My friend Cyndie’s grandson was so excited by the book, I had to forward these!
I had a response from the professor at BCC who very nicely told me that he only chooses the adult books for the Court, but gave me the email for the woman who chooses the children’s books. The hunt goes on-(I love these challenges).
I also love the gardening book. It’s fascinating the get a British perspective. Love of love, Judy
