Got my pre-release copy of my great pal's brand new #picturebook
It's absolutely stunning! She's not on here, but go check out Hannah E. Harrison's, THE GOOD SHEPHERD AND THE STUBBORD SHEEP published by @HCChristianPub
It's on discount for a few more days! https://t.co/oxNfwVZXK7

Don't you love a good pumpkin story?!

Sounds beautiful!

Discover the enchanting melodies of nature and the resilient spirit of First American peoples in MY EARTH HAS A VOICE.
Through the seasons, feel the heartbeat of the earth and the echoes of its stories. A beautiful symphony of love, life, and resilience awaits.

I did it again! Here are the 2023 numbers from Publishers Marketplace for children's deals, broken down by age category and type #PB #CB #MG #YA #GN. These are *announced* deals, so can't account for pub pros not using PM (rare), delays for illustrated works (common), etc.

Be on the lookout, friends! WINTER themed #picturebooks, please :)

[Nicole Garnett @garnett_nicole]

Looking for fun and engaging #PBs with a winter theme published in the last 5ish years. This is not for comps, just for a project I'm working on! All recommendations appreciated! 🙌🫶

Snowflakes dance in the night,
Christmas lights shining bright.

Favorite gingerbread #PBs? I’m doing a gingerbread-themed storytime at our local natural science museum in December. #kidlit #teachertwitter

@PatZMiller The green sweater with hand-on-chin is lovely, but the brown on brown is magic to me! Can’t go wrong with any though!

[KidLit COMPS @kidlitcomps]

Let’s help April out! Anyone have a good resource for this?

Any good comps come to mind??

Halloween's near, the spookiest night,
Costumes, candy, filled with fright.
Ghostly tales and pumpkins bright,
On Haunted Eve, things go

BUMP IN THE NIGHT!
