Trick-or-treating with friends on October's #KidLitArtPostcard 🎃 Have you been down this branch yet? https://t.co/L5VudQYa2Y

This is Miles. He is terse, sarcastic, and intentionally rude. Always wants to be the edgiest one in the room. Not necessarily a gem underneath the rough exterior, but probably not as bad as he wishes he was. Despite all of this, he would never rat you out.

@RodentRageNFT Thank you for the compliment and the share! ♥️

[Claire DeWilde @artfularmadillo]

@mother_ferret Thank you! ❤️

[Claire DeWilde @artfularmadillo]

@_hanastudios Thanks so much!

Meet The Ear. He is extremely quiet and shy, but he is capable of speech...we think. Listens always, everywhere. If you ask him a yes or no question, he's likely to tell you the answer. He craves the approval of the older kids. Would only rat you out if an older kid told him to.

Amelia is bold, with an explorer's heart. Kind, but not a pushover. Her way of encouraging sounds more like egging on. Would rat you out in only the most diplomatic way, probably putting a spin on it so that it doesn't sound so bad.

Eleanor is proud, and can be a real snob. Always concerned with appearances. WILL RAT YOU OUT.

This is Todd! He is kindhearted, fun loving, and unconcerned about looking weird or foolish. Would only rat you out if threatened.

Priscilla is Opal’s best friend. She is confident and quick to defend what she thinks is right. Can always think of something to do. She doesn't have anything to prove to anyone. Would never rat you out.

A tractor parked next to my local berry stand. Playing with oil pastels on a cool grassy hillside. Spring is my favorite.⁠

[Claire DeWilde @artfularmadillo]

Outfits for the boys. Which is your favorite?⁠

Here's my #KidLitArtPostcard for June! The kiddos have just run up a hill with some inadvertently stolen sausage links.
