Nick Thomas

Nick began his career as an editorial assistant with Arthur A. Levine and has held positions with Bloomsbury, Chicken House and David Fickling Books. He loves to work on every type of book under the sun and has had the honour and pleasure of editing books from award-winning authors such as Varian Johnson, Kelly Yang, Daniel José Older, Amy Sarig King, Aida Salazar, and Eric Gansworth.

He is now is Senior Editor at Levine Querido, a newly founded independent children’s book publisher based in the United States.

Levine Querido is born of a fervent mission to give voice to a uniquely talented, exceptionally diverse group of authors and artists. Their books will be characterised by great storytelling, undeniably powerful and beautiful artwork, and a fearless commitment to telling deep truths; and sometimes they will make you laugh while doing so.

LQ publishes two lists: the Arthur A. Levine list, which contains extraordinary picture books, poetry, novels, non-fiction, and graphic novels, and centred on the experiences and points of view of the magnificently diverse creators among us, writing in English; and the Em Querido list, created in tandem with their partners Querido NL, an exciting, curated selection of the work of some by the world’s most gifted authors and artists, translated from another language.
