Look at these tiny little bird feet!

I would like to take a moment to declare my love and devotion to Libby and Hoopla. I just got a little burst of endorphins when I got a notification that my hold was ready🤗 #kidlit #librarian #romance #author

If you love Klassen’s hat books, you have to read Pumphrey’s SOMEWHERE in the BAYOU! @noveleffect.bsky.social My kids are begging for sounds to go with this title! #kidlit #librarian #author #PB #humor

Two things—I only marked two things off my weekend goals for writing. My to-do list was too long for my pace. #kidlit #writingcommunity

For the first time ever, my Critique Club was unable to find a single thing the author could improve on. I don’t know this author personally so I hope he realizes what a big deal this is! These kids pour over every word w their whole heart. #kidlit #author #librarian

This book is fantastic! If you read to or write for kids, order it NOW! #kidlit #PB #librarian #teacher #author

This is hilarious! And you better believe I will sport this mini hand as I flip the pages of our read aloud! #kidlit #librarian #teacher

This week’s AR Diamond Book Award nominee pulls at the heartstrings #kidlit

I’m about to go on submission. I remember a post that suggested writers include a line in their proposals stating they don’t consent to their words to be used to train AI, but I don’t remember the wording. Can someone help? #PB #kidlit #editors #agents #writers #writingcommunity

I truly love when authors and kids connect! He will remember this forever. #kidlit

Convo w 4th grader about a movie. Me: It’s really good—you’ll love it. S: Is it a puppet show? Me: No! When have I ever told you to watch a puppet show? S: 🙄 Um just before the holiday… Me: ARE YOU CALLING THE MUPPETS A PUPPET SHOW? S: I mean… Me: Blasphemy! Also no it’s not the muppets.

I love passing by our book vending machine to see what choices have made it to the front. I spot @darcypattison.bsky.social @dangemeinhart.bsky.social @lynnekelly.bsky.social #kidlit

I had a shower thought this morning for a #PB that will combine the science of reading with play in the form of a story. Could this really work?!? I hope I can make this happen! #kidlit #author #librarian #teacher #edusky

That internal tug of war of what to do w a day off— Do I read? Do I write? What is not in the battle for attention is cleaning the house. #kidlit #author #librarian #reader #romcom

First read off of the Arkansas Diamond nominee list 24-25. The kids loved this book and the littles were hyping up the author’s “bad drawings”. A lot of teaching opportunities w this one! Relatable regardless of age. #kidlit #librarian #skybrarian #baddrawer #sethfishman
