Andrea Hall

Andrea Hall – Editor

I'm a passionate children's book editor with a decade of experience, focusing on SEL, multiculturalism, diversity, and tough topics.

Overview

I've worked at Albert Whitman & Company and most recently was a Senior Acquisitions Editor with Beaming Books. I've worked with a wide array of authors including Joseph Bruchac, Laura Gehl, Marsha Diane Arnold, and Alexandra Alessandri.


I'm a communicative and collaborative professional, and I love working with authors to shape a story. I pose questions, provide suggestions, and work with authors to find the best solution to elevate the manuscript. I look at the plot, the pacing, the character motivation and emotion, and how all story elements work together.
