  I’d also like to thank the brilliant editors who have worked with me on this manuscript. Harold Underdown’s suggestions helped me determine the trajectory of this project, but much more importantly, I learned from Harold about the patience and dedication that go into revision. My agent, Adriana Dominguez, has been relentless in her support and always pushes me to do my best work. Her faith in her authors is evident in her high standards, and I treasure our conversations about Latinx families and literature. I’d also like to thank Marisa DiNovis and Sylvia Al-Mateen for their detailed editorial feedback.

  The first time I rode the subway with Jenny Brown, I knew she was my kind of person—someone with an encyclopedic knowledge of children’s literature and a voracious reader. When my stop came, I didn’t want to end our conversation about the past and future of children’s books. I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity to continue the ride.
