Testimonials for Mira and the Children's Book Academy from Multi-Published Authors and Illustrators

"All the manuscripts I worked on with Mira, went on to be published! I know I would not be published, had I not found ...Children’s Book Academy classes. I had been floundering for years as a writer. Taking my first class was like suddenly realizing what I had been doing wrong.  can’t recommend this highly enough...and I’m forever grateful." ~Shirin Shamsi 

"Having taken the Craft and Business of Writing Children's Course hosted by the Children's Book Academy, I can't say enough about it. There is so much information here, but there is also inspiration and support.  The community that Mira has built up around this course is incredible, and something that I know I will carry with me as I continue on this journey.  The course has given me the tools I need to craft a publishable story, and the confidence to take the next step.  If you're considering signing up for a course with the Children’s Book Academy, you should absolutely do it! You won't regret it!" ~ Lauren Soloy

"I was paired with a diverse group of people who were all working on interesting projects and willing to help each other out …. Mira Reisberg has such a gentle way of giving you a straight up critique that you feel challenged and nurtured at the same time. I'm exiting this 5-week whirlwind with 2 picture book manuscripts, an overhauled website, and a renewed commitment to getting my own stories into dummy format and getting them out there in the world. Wow!" ~ Jeanette Bradley

"My experience working with Dr. Reisberg was a totally positive one. Her passion and love of children’s books, along with her wealth of knowledge regarding the industry, go far beyond the printed page. She is a master craftsman of words and picture book illustration."  ~Laurie Smollett Kutscera
