Children’s picture books and graphic novels on a woodgrain table
Thanks to @alaneadams.bsky.social and her Operation Fill the Shelves initiative for sending these new books for our school’s media center collection! Most of these are reader requests, so I know they’ll be well loved by our students. #kidlit #SchoolLibrary #ReadingIsAlanezing

Four smiling people holding up children’s books in a room that looks like a warehouse with tables and shelves full of children’s books and boxes of children’s books.
Thanks to @maureentai.com for the tour of The Children's Book Bank, Sherbourne location! Delight meeting Femy, Jeffrey, & Dave.
Do you have #KidLit books to donate? Sherbourne & Morningside locations accepting donations this Saturday! Details here.
Love trees? BE A TREE is the perfect #EarthDay #picturebook! Check out my recommendation on Instagram @booksbw. #kidlit #booksky #kidlitsky
Feels relevant to reshare this tonight, as I find myself wishing I somehow managed to be on the Integrity with the Artemis crew.
#KidLit creators, astronauts are jealous of us, too. ❤️
Thanks, @vickyweberbooks.bsky.social for this honest look at the industry.

So we are back on track. Despite some challenges, which have been resolved, still targeting a May 12th release for Tall as the Sun. Hoping for good vibes/luck as reviews & other stuff come in. Nervous but excited. Hopeful that kids respond to it for summer reading & more.
Graphic that shows the cover of This Wolf Was Different by Katie Slivensky and Hannah Salyer, featuring a close up of a wolf with a human reflected in her eyes, and the caption above that reads "The New York Public Library Best Books of 2024" and also the cover of I, Rock: A Geology Tale by Katie Slivensky and Steph Stilwell, which shows a cartoon rock with googly eyes sitting on a cross section of the ground, with the caption above that reads, "SLJ Best Book of 2025".
#Librarians and #Teachers, if you're looking to expand your #KidLit science selections, or grownups, if you have a kid who loves nature, I recommend my picture books, illustrated by Hannah Salyer (This Wolf) and Steph Stilwell (I, Rock), pubbed by Beach Lane Books! 😃

This is exactly it--not only in journalism, but in #kidlit and #yalit writing, writing books for adults, all creative writing. And in illustration, design... all creative effort. You can't jump over the process to the result!
A photo collage of some of my landscape art: An autumn landscape with orange trees and a blue sky, a poppy patch with trees, a winter landscape with trees and frost, a summer woodland with blue hydrangea, a landscape with oxeye daisies and a landscape in pink with a deer.

That's amazing! Congratulations! Judy Blume was one of my favorite authors as a child. As a teacher, I read Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing as a read-aloud to many of my classes. Freckle Juice is another of my all time favorites.
So cute!
