Hey, thanks for stopping by!
If you love picture books, you've come to the right place! I'm Susan K. Holt, and I write stories that celebrate curiosity, imagination, and heart. (Books previously published under Susan K Kralovansky are still my work - you may see both names connected during this transition.) If you're a teacher or librarian, you'll find activity guides and classroom resources on my Books page. And, if you'd like to learn more about me, please click here. If you're a writer, I'd love to encourage you on your creative journey. As the author of twenty picture books, I'm happy to share what I've learned on my road to publication. I offer Critiques through Yellow Bird Editors and Writing Coaches. I love presenting at elementary schools, public libraries, reading and writing conferences, and book festivals. Please contact me for more information about visits, events, and writing. Happy reading! Susan K. Holt |
