The executives at Simon & Schuster Children’s Publishing will launch an eponymous imprint for editorial director and vice president Caitlyn Dlouhy. Caitlyn Dlouhy Books will be under the Atheneum Books for Young Readers division.
This new imprint will publish approximately 20 titles per year. The inaugural list will kick off in Spring 2016.
Dlouhy gave this statement in the press release: “The strength of voice in characters is what I believe most helps kids as they find their own voices. I’m thrilled and deeply grateful that Simon & Schuster continues to emphatically support my quest to find those voices, those stories that speak to the hearts of young readers.”
