About the Author
Jasmine Walls is a writer, artist, and editor with former lives in professional baking and teaching martial arts. She still bakes (though she's pretty rusty at martial arts) and has a deep love for storytelling, creating worlds, and building tales about the characters who inhabit them. Along with Levine Querido, she has works published with Boom! Studios, Capstone, Oni Press, The Atlantic, and The Nib. She lives in California with two dogs and a large stash of quality hot chocolate.

Teo DuVall is a queer Chicanx comic artist and illustrator based in Seattle, WA. They graduated in 2015 with a BFA in Cartooning from the School of Visual Arts and have had the immense pleasure of working with Levine Querido, HarperCollins, Dark Horse, Chronicle Books, Scholastic and more. He has a passion for fantasy, aesthetic ghost stories, and witches of color, and loves being able to create stories for a living. Teo lives with his partner, their two pets -- a giant, cuddly pit-bull, and a tiny, ferocious cat -- and a small horde of houseplants.
Reviews

Publishers Weekly's Top 10 YA Graphic Novels for Fall '23


"Brings vivid characters (queer, broom-racing witches) to life in an equally vivid setting."--Gizmodo (io9)
[STAR] "Fascinating... Though readers will enjoy the dramatic racing scenes, this is truly a story about queer folk and people of color who have created a space where they can joyously and freely be themselves."-- Booklist (starred)
[STAR] "Brooms... draws on the fantastical to amplify and confront issues of both the past and the present. The result is a heartfelt, gripping, and resonant story about power--how the majority wields it, and how marginalized groups reclaim it." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred)
"Brooms Is Your Next Favorite Fantastical LGBTQIA+ Sports Story" - The Mary Sue
"[A] mix of exciting racing scenes, a story about overcoming the odds, and mesmerizing depictions of magic, plus some of the not-so-pretty parts of our country's history, and it's done in a way that is compassionate and uplifting." - GeekDad
