The other weird thing is people like to conflate a follow-count with an artist's level of skill or prominence, and that's just an incorrect metric. Some of our most skilled and well-regarded colleagues have modest followings online. Developing a following online is a whole other skill.

Book cover illustration of the book You Are Loved by Margaret O'Hair, Sofia Sanchez and Sofia Cardoso, published by Scholastic. The cover features the main character girl snd her brother and two different families at the back.

Looking for a #picturebook that features all kinds of families for #nationalfamilymonth?

YAL is a book about love and families with an inclusive and diverse range of characters, seasons and love languages. It highlights the important message that families aren’t just the people.. (>) #KidLit

I’m still seeing cover reveals happening and the illustrator being left unmentioned and untagged.

This shouldn’t be happening anymore In BIG BIG 2025…ESPECIALLY from authors who should definitely know better cos it’s not their first rodeo.

Authors…please…DO BETTER!

📙 Written by Margaret O'Hair, inspired by Sofia Sanchez and illustrated by me, Sofia Cardoso. Published by the team at Scholastic, Katie Fitch and Samantha Swank.
