As we prepare for winter, we've been thinking about Janet Fox's Wintergarden, a lyrically hopeful story about a young girl who learns nurturing green-thumb lessons of growing an indoor herb garden from her patient mother told with Jasu Hu's stunning illustrations! #SELSpotlight

★ A “melodically described portrait of a window-sill herb garden,” @janetsfox and illustrator #JasuHu’s picture book WINTERGARDEN is a “story of tender care and nature’s contrasts” https://t.co/nMI336oVY0

Totally psyched to have a post on @JaneFriedman 's superb site.

Elision is not a word that is often used in story crafting, but it should be. To elide is to omit, or to leave out. And we need to know as much about “leaving things out” of our stories as we do about the things we love to add. https://t.co/U2JFbBAfvu | @janetsfox

As an author, parent, and former teacher I find this devastating and potentially destructive to the well-being of children who will now experience a deficit of reading material. This is not how a good society behaves.
