Picture Book Dummy Critique with Cassandra Federman
Starting bid: $50.00
Dummy submission must be standard 32-40 pages.
Cassandra Federman was born and raised in Massachusetts, where she spent her childhood reading comic books, playing action figures, drawing superheroes, and participating in all things nerdy.
She graduated magna cum laude from Brandeis University, where she co-founded the Brandeis Comic Book Club. After college she moved to Los Angeles, where she worked in film and television. Over the course of her life, Cassandra has been many things — a hand model, a wrestler, a manatee rescuer, an actor, and a mystic wood elf — but her favorite so far has been an author/illustrator.
Cassandra’s published books include her middle grade graphic novel, Story Spinners (Aladdin/Simon & Schuster), and her picture books This Is a Sea Cow (Albert Whitman) and This Is a Seahorse (Albert Whitman).
Cassandra's next picture book, Gray Squirrel Loses It! (Random House), comes out in October 2025, and her early reader graphic novel with Ben Clanton, Aquamanatee (DC), comes out in September 2025.
