Still here to stay connected with the kidlit world, but posting primarily on Facebook now. Join me there at https://t.co/OFNf5RHzLG for bookish talk and weekly word scrambles!
Was thrilled to see my story on the HM list for Author/Illustrator Illustrator Gallery for #PBParty this yr. Grateful for @MindyAlyseWeiss and all her judges for hrs. of effort put in to support fellow #creatives#illustrators#kidlitart
Ellie Anna Johanna Jones becomes a duck. A unicorn. A mouse. A bear. Her brother, Michael Fustus Augustus Jones, is also transformed. He just doesn’t know it yet. Ellie the Duck is a story of determination, #SIBLING bonds, and the power of imagination. #PBPitch
Gather, students. Now’s the time! We will practice how to rhyme. On a cold day, on a boat, one must wear a nice warm _____?
Jacket!
Close. Let’s try again because Ms. Gray is NOT giving up, in RHYME TIME. #PBPitch
After Ellie discovers her favorite color is green, everything around her must follow suit—clothes, socks, art, oatmeal, her brother. But the oatmeal ISN’T green? And Michael likes PURPLE? She can fix that. Antics ensue in this story of strong will and #SIBLING bonds. #PBPitch
Whenever Molly and Grandad see something spectacular, they simply must do a jig. But when a new friend questions that tradition, Molly decides maybe it’s time to stop—until something happens that surprises them all. A story of family, authenticity, and celebrating joy. #PBPitch
Spunky and curious, Bree has questions–A LOT of questions. But when she has a seizure in class, a new diagnosis fades her bright spirit. Temporarily. Bree’s Busy, Beautiful Brain celebrates friendship, curiosity, and resilience while dispelling fears about epilepsy. #PBPITCH#DIS
Hooray! #PBParty 2024 submission is in the books. I'm so thankful for the encouragement and support of this generous #KidLitCommunity. Thank you to @mindyalyseweiss and the PBParty team for ALL of your time and effort, and congratulations 🎉 to everyone who entered. #WeDidIt!
Zipper, the fly, has one speed--Fast. He has no time for Rules, until he finds himself in peril and the Rules might be the only things that save him. #Humor#PBPitch
