I've been grateful to Lawrence Schimel for his support and encouragement early in my career. We met online years before we finally met in person in NYC:
I'm thrilled that my books have been translated into French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese, and am grateful to the Curtis Brown Translation Rights department for all their help. Jonathan Lyons and Sarah Perillo have kindly agreed to answer a few questions for me about the picture book translation rights process at Curtis Brown.
I was thrilled to find out that the French version of I'M BORED was available for ordering online, and then got curious about the process.
How does a picture book get translated? Are there any issues that children's book writers and illustrators need to be aware of, when working a project?
