I’m so honored to say that Wake the Wild Creatures was chosen for the 2026 Rise: A Feminist Book Project book list from the American Library Association!
Rise: A Feminist Book Project for Ages 0-18 has been promoting quality feminist literature for young readers since 2002. This list is run by the American Library Association with the purpose of recommending high-quality books for young readers with significant feminist content. This is a reading list after my own heart. Check out all the books from 2026 in the full list of Rise honorees here and on the ALA website.
Thank you so much to ALA and the Feminist Book Project committee!
