A new book covered by a top secret sign
I was thrilled when a friend sent me a picture of my new picture book at Bologna Children’s Book Fair!!
It’s out in June and I’m really excited about it!
The illustrations by <it’s a secret> are AMAZING and we’ve got a foreign co-edition already!

Book cover for Beegu by Alexis Deacon
Book cover for Invisible by Christina Diaz Gonzalez and Gabriela Epstein
Book cover for Bumble & Snug and the Jealous Giants by Mark Bradley
Book cover for Just Jamie by Terri Libenson
I’m hoping #Bluesky will be in more robust health for this today. 🤞
It’s been a bit of a week, made brighter with pockets of immense kindness.
So for #KidsBooksFriday this week, I thought we could celebrate books that highlight the importance of kindness.

Happy two year anniversary to this iconic moment!! Can’t believe it’s been two years!!
The look of confused horror on my husband’s face this morning when I said, “Did you remember my special anniversary today?” was worth it!! 🤣

A touching tale of love and loss illustrated by Max Rambaldi.
Millie has always wanted a dog, but when her grandmother passes away, she finds herself scared of letting anyone (or any dog) in. Can her dads help her find the perfect pup to teach her to love again?

It’s Neurodiversity Celebration Week!
A spooky Goosebumps-inspired book isn’t just for Halloween, especially when it’s also about neurodivergence, anxiety, mental health and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder!
