@DrLeanaWen @PostOpinions Thanks for working to highlight this critical issue! My lab has recently released the first data (to our knowledge) that experimentally demonstrate that the "Chinese virus" label increases anti-Chinese xenophobia. https://t.co/pDBWLFmqWH

@tytus_penn @StewedMarimo @jk_rowling @tytus_penn Their map is 100% kid-made, but I think the boys would actually be really tickled to know what "subtle giveaways" you saw that make them seem older. (It'd seem like a compliment, particularly coming from someone who taught art. They've done some painting lessons...)

@jk_rowling Heartfelt thanks, @jk_rowling, for sharing #TheIckabog tale and praising our boys' art, to their great delight! Phil - our map & LOTR enthusiast - drew it (after getting a map-drawing book by @TheRedEpic for his 10th bday last month) and Sam (age 8) added detail and watercolour.

Our boys (ages 8 & 10) absolutely love #TheIckabog and teamed up to map Cornucopia (with watercolour & pencil). Alas they evidently used the wrong size paper for the official competition, but we still want to share their artwork with @jk_rowling and the world!
