We were sad to hear about the death earlier this week of Karen Blumenthal. A respected journalist (for the Wall Street Journal and Dallas Morning News) and author of nonfiction books for young adults, Blumenthal also co-created the #KidLitWomen* initiative. Read our review of her latest book, Jane Against the World: Roe v. Wade and the Fight for Reproductive Rights; her thoughts on writing Hillary Rodham Clinton: A Woman Living History; and her interview with Julie Danielson for Calling Caldecott. More about the author will appear in a upcoming Horn Book Magazine.
