~ Librarian Karen Jensen, author of "Treatise on the State of Middle Grade and Young Adult Publishing Today" and creator of the Teen Librarian Toolbox blog on School Library Journal's website
~ Chris Baron, author of Jewish middle grade fiction and founding member of the Facebook group For the Love of Middle Grade
