Bio:

Kathleen Merz is the Editorial Director for Eerdmans Books for Young Readers. She joined Eerdmans in 2009, and since then has had the chance to work on a number of award-winning titles, including books that have won the Caldecott Honor, the Batchelder Award for translation, and the Sibert Medal. Kathleen studied English and linguistics, and especially enjoys working on translated books and nonfiction picture books. When she’s not at work editing, Kathleen can usually be found outside somewhere in Michigan biking, kayaking, camping, or just tucked in a hammock reading.

What I'm Looking For:

PBs and book dummies, also willing to do CB, MG, and GN.
