Jo Whittemore/Annabelle Oh
Children’s author, food lover. Oh…I have space to say more?
I write books about superheroes, girls who code, and kids who are just trying to survive middle school.

- It’s my book birthday! (Well, my pen name’s book birthday, but still!) If you like the folklore and humor of KPop Demon Hunters, won’t you please check it out? #kpopdemonhunters #koreanfolklore #bookrelease #kidlit #middlegrade
- For my forever love…libraries. @authorsabb.bsky.social
- Another gem I picked up. Love this story premise @gregpak.net!
- Reposted by Jo Whittemore/Annabelle OhThe YA publishing crisis isn’t that we need more mature YA books or a Mature YA label, it’s that we need more YA books published for teens of all ages and less YA books published as YA but also wanting to reach Adult audiences. Adults have plenty of books published for them.
- First time crocheting, and my head HURTS from holding my breath (I was so afraid I’d lose a loop off my hook). But look! It kinda resembles…something.
- This did NOT go where I thought it was going to go.😂 Well done, @dakotabrown.bsky.social @ryancody.bsky.social and @micahmyers.bsky.social!
- The books my daughter currently picks out for reading time. Remember, they’re always new to SOMEONE.

- A rising tide lifts all boats. If someone reads a vampire blood bank heist story and loves it, they’ll want more. And then they’ll pick up YOUR vampire blood bank heist story. Also, can someone please write a vampire blood bank heist story?
- The parental controls on my daughter’s watch require us to prove we’re adults by answering the equation 16x8. 😐 We will not be accessing any parental functions under my care.
- “Shrinking” continues to be just the best show in the world.
- I saw Lauren Ridloff this morning, so…you know, my day is already made.☺️
- Another great find: Living Hell, with script, art, AND colors by @caitlinyarsky.bsky.social and letters by @claytoncowles.bsky.social A fun twist on gods and demons (Spoiler alert: the gods ARE demons!)
- Secret Level needs a Portal episode. I’m just saying.
- In case you didn’t know, Annabelle Oh is my pen name for middle grade mysteries and… THIS IS THE COVER FOR MY FIRST ONE! It’s a twist on a Korean folktale, with “Only Murders in the Building” vibes, coming out next year from Disney Hyperion! Isn’t it ✨pretty???✨

- I’d love an app called “Do Kids Know _____?” where you can fill in the blank with a pop culture/historical reference and get an immediate answer as to whether the hilarious (to you) joke that you’re writing would be embraced with laughter or crickets.
- I’ve been making some good picks lately! Exit City by @marklondon.bsky.social and @karlmostert.bsky.social with @davidbaron.bsky.social on colors. Intriguing world and characters (check his pocket) and great art and colors!
- This one’s older but ages like a fine saucer of milk, in that it becomes a pungent cheese. Maybe. I don’t know how cheese works. Blacksad by Juan Diaz Canales and Juanjo Guardnido is a 1950s detective series…with animals! Very gritty, beautiful artwork, fascinating world. #WeReadsComics
