📚👍 Moody. Intense. Stunning in every way, I AM WE will make you look at crows and community in a new light! A fantastic read aloud! jilannehoffmann.com/2025/10/10/i.... #kidli #picturebooks #nonfiction #crows #skybrarians #edusky #teachers @lesliebarnardbooth.bsky.social @scatterbee.bsky.social

An illustration by Charlotte Manning from I Built A Cabin. A girl tucked in bed with a sleeping racoon, bat, and owl. The animals are Scratching, twitching, and yawning loudly. The girl is wide awake, and looks overwhelmed.

You might find that the nocturnal animal sounds take a little getting used to, but bringing those animals inside with you will not make them any quieter.

Don’t believe us? Find out for yourself in I BUILT A CABIN.

Today we’re celebrating #GivingTuesday, a global generosity movement that encourages people to give and do good. 💛
So, throwback time! I created this illustration for @GivingTuesdayPT in 2020, inspired by the motto “Together we can change the world”.

Looking through old files, and I found this 2-page comic short story that I wrote and drew! It was featured in the graphic novel Cow Boy: A Boy And His Horse by Nate Cosby and Chris Eliopoulos.
