SAVE YOUR LIBRARY! Your library is more than just books—it’s the heart of your community—a place of learning, discovery, and connection for all ages. But now, it’s at risk.

SO much fun to hear Heidi Stemple read her brand new book about her mom Jane Yolen right on Jane's birthday. Two special birthdays in one! And we got to sing Happy Birthday before the cake was cut. 🎶 Check out my review on Goodreads! #newpicturebook #booklaunch #kidlit @heidieys.bsky.social
