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.

Laurie Keller is my #kidlit hero. Shell be returning for her second appearance. I don’t think I’d be the weirdo that I am today if it wasn’t for Laurie’s books.
