Today’s #picturebook #interview is with the author and illustrator who both live in Hawaii. So it’s no wonder that this picture book perfectly captures Hawaiian life. #kidlit #bookblogger jenabenton.com/2025/02/20/s...

MADE FOR MORE by @chloeitoward.bsky.social & Gael Abary is a powerful & very personal PB inspired by the author’s journey of learning to love her skin. With gorgeous, lyrical language & inviting illustrations, this important PB addresses colorism & celebrates identity. One of my favorites of 2025!

Librarians, teachers, educators etc! I'm putting together a giveaway, and I'm wondering what would be most beneficial to you? A virtual author visit, picture books, coffee giftcards, a four year cruise around the world to lessen the unrelenting pressures of life? I don't really have the #EduSky
