Frances Gilbert Email & Phone Number | When not drinking tea and watching kitten videos, I acquire and edit children's books, which often involves drinking tea and watching kitten videos. I've been working in children's books pretty much since I stopped being an actual child. I worked in the children's department of my town library as a student, then after college started my career at Scholastic Canada, which eventually led me to Sterling in New York in 2000, where I set up their children's publishing division. In 2012 I moved to Penguin Random House, and am currently Editor-in-Chief of Doubleday Books for Young Readers, a picture book and board book imprint. I'm also a children's author with the following titles in print: Go, Girls, Go! (Simon & Schuster); I Love Pink!, I Love My Tutu!, and I Love My Grandma! (all in the Step Into Reading series); and I Will Always Be Your Bunny (Doubleday). You can follow me on Twitter at @GoGirlsGoBooks, where I post about children's writing, editing, and publishing. Being a children's book editor has allowed me to keep my inner 6-year-old very close. It's nice to have a grown-up job where you don't have to grow up entirely. Specialties: Manuscript acquisitions; children's book editing and writing (specializing in picture books); list building; imprint management; public speaking about children's books and publishing.
