Elizabeth Olsen and Robbie Arnett; illustrated by Marissa Valdez

STAR AUTHOR: Elizabeth Olsen garnered national attention when she starred in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the Scarlet Witch. Now with WandaVision, her own hit show on Disney+, Olsen has gained even more of a devoted following. She, along with her boyfriend Robbie Arnett, have created an original picture book series with staying power and they are eager to promote.

RISING ILLUSTRATOR: Ambitious Girl, written by Meena Harris, is Marissa Valdez's debut picture book (Little Brown, 2021), and with Valdez's clever illustrations and vivid color palette, we know she's one to watch.

CHARACTER-BASED APPROACH TO WELLNESS: The children's wellness market has skyrocketed and wellness for kids is here to stay. This series takes a fresh approach through a strong character who teaches kids how to self-soothe during moments of anxiety, as opposed to the more abstract and poetic books for kids in the market that might feel harder to apply to real life.

REAL ANXIETY TOOLS: Hattie Harmony gives science-approved advice on how to stay calm via breathing exercises and other mind-body practices.

PLAYFUL TONE: The fun and vibrant illustrations and humorous narrative turn the serious topic of anxiety into a sweet and helpful story with a kid-friendly protagonist.

BACK TO SCHOOL: The first book in the Hattie series focuses on the first day of school, making it perfect for this promotional window.

SEQUEL: The second book will publish in Summer 2023.
