It took too long to recognize the signs of autistic burnout in my kiddo. Autistic burnout in children isn't talked about enough. Check out @autisticrealms family guide for ideas about how to support your little one in burnout #autismawareness #autismfamily #autismmom

The amazing thing about the Crystal Kite Award is that it's a lot like the Oscar. It's the only peer-given award in our biz. So, a HUGE congratulations to all of these amazing books and their authors! @scbwi #crystalkite #kidlit

An intimate, emotionally-evocative story rich with sensory detail. A mother and child remember… “happy and sad, an end and a beginning intertwined” @sydneydraws #picturebooks #kidlit

As neurodivergent, this resonated with me. I’ve always found myself drawn to the rhythm, tone and pacing of poetry to capture the feelings and experiences that, at times, elude ordinary prose. Grateful for these beautiful stories!

OK, so WHEN YOU CAN SWIM just won the Boston Globe–Horn Book Award in PBs 👀

Tbh, in my heart of hearts, I obviously hope that SWIM will do well, and even receive an accolade or two—but never in my wildest dreams did that look like getting a BIG one a month into its publication—
