New book!!

A few days from today is a very special day! March 15 is the official launch date of,

While We Wait


Élodie Duhameau did the illustrations and they are beautiful! 
Somehow she managed to put so much expression on the faces of the characters with so few lines. 
I can't wait for you to read my words and see her art! It is said that the best picture books are a perfect partnership between author and illustrator: 
The art invites you into the book 
and the words keep you coming back. And those words were 
patiently guided and edited by the BEST editor, Debbie Rogosin.

Already I've had such a lovely review from Linda Ludke, extraordinary Collections Management Librarian at London Public Library who made While We Wait her expert pick. She said, in part:

"The elegantly crafted text lyrically conveys just how active 
the act of waiting can be"

Linda goes on to say,

"Judy Ann Sadler expertly stitches warmth and originality into the fabric of this sweet picture book about a close-knit family and the fine art of patience."

Don't wait!!

Happy reading,

Judy Ann
