š¬šJennifer Holm & Matthew Holm's Origin Story
In today's episode, I talk to Jennifer Holm and Matthew Holmāsiblings and co-creators of the bestselling, award-winning and trail-blazing Babymouse And Squish graphic novel series. I can't understate just how important their work is to the current-day landscape of graphic novels for young readers. Babymouse: Queen of the World was published in December of 2005āit was one of the very first kids' comics put out by one of the major trade publishers.
Jenni, Matt, and I go way back, but I was so excited to learn more about their history. Let's get into Jenni and Matt's Origin Story!
