As 2021 draws to a close, Free Spirits are reflecting on the past year and the people who have made it memorable. This year, we were acquired by Teacher Created Materials, released 29 books into the world, and watched as our publishing family grew with so many wonderful new authors and illustrators.

We also learned from you, our readers. We wish you happy and safe holidays and a hopeful New Year.

The entire staff at Free Spirit Publishing is staying home through Monday, January 3, to celebrate and recharge. We’ll be back to blogging Tuesday, January 4.
