Giles and her editor, Shana Corey, as they dive into Chrystal’s two new books—We Are Joy, a heartwarming picture book, and Listen to the Girls, a timely middle grade novel. Chrystal effortlessly tackles important topics for young readers, making these books stand out.
After the chat, stick around for a sneak peek at all the fresh, fantastic titles coming in Summer 2026, brought to you by the RHCB School & Library team.
We Stand With the Banned
We at Penguin Random House fervently oppose these attempts at censorship because we believe that books make us better, and students in particular deserve access to a wide range of perspectives.
We stand with our authors and are committed to publishing diverse stories and rich, wide-spanning perspectives. We stand with teachers and librarians and trust their expertise on what books to share with young readers. And we stand with our readers, because everyone deserves to see themselves in a book.
Learn what we're doing - and what you can do - to protect the freedom to read.
