#kidlit star Monica Arnaldo is an artist right up my alley. The books are full of charm and wackiness and I can’t get enough of them. I really love the shape language she uses in her work and how it adds so much to the vibe of the story.

Collage and paint illustration in purples, reds, and yellows: two kids on bunkbeds. The sister is reaching down from the top bunk and trying to take a teddy bear from the sleeping brother on the bottom bunk.
Did you have a favorite stuffed animal? What was its name? Did you protect it at all costs from your siblings? I had one called Humphrey Bogart that my brother called Humphrey Bullfart.

Juana Martinez-Neal brings a level of rich tone and nostalgia to all of her #kidlit books. I am always impressed with her ability to create balance of soft and hard edges in her character designs.

Same at my house. He’s 12 but still not able to keep the toothpaste in his mouth apparently
You were scandalized when I said I’m not a big fan of soup!
Cover of the picture book BOOGY & TEE and TWINKLE & HEW, done in collage and paint, showing 4 characters floating among large ocean waves, among pieces of a broken-up boat
I’m excited to share my next book BOOGY & TEE and TWINKLE & HEW written by Kathy Stinson, published by @groundwoodbooks.bsky.social out Sept 1st, 2026! I’d be grateful if you’d pre-order it from your local independent bookstore 📚❤️

Thanks very much Neil!
Ever get a toothpaste splotch on your shirt that you didn’t see at the time?
For you, your kid(s), or both?
So cute!
Thanks so much Deb! I love your books!
Do you ever look down at your shirt, and you’ve got a toothpaste splotch you didn’t notice?
Are you a parent, or is it you who gets toothpaste all over the place?
👀 Look at the adorable critters #kidlit star @juliebenbassat.bsky.social made when she came on my live show, Gab ‘n’ Doodle!
Give it a watch here and find out about the Soup Controversy!
