Song Of A Blackbird, a Wartime YA Graphic Novel by Maria van Lieshout

Mark Siegel at First Second has bought world rights to Song of a Blackbird, excluding Dutch, in a preemptive purchase from Maria van Lieshout's agent Steven Malk, at Writers House. Tess Banta and Robyn Chapman will also edit the book, and publication is planned for January, 2025.

Decades earlier, Emma is a young art student about to be drawn into what will become the biggest bank heist in European history: swapping 50 Million Guilders' worth of forged bank notes for real ones―right under the noses of the Nazis! Emma's life―and the lives of thousands, including a young woman named Johanna―hangs in the balance. In this stranger-than-fiction graphic novel, Maria van Lieshout weaves a tale about family, courage, and the power of art.
