At the ANY ANIMAL CAFÉ, woolly mammoths chomp grass & saber tooth cats usually don’t eat other customers. Then a stranger walks in on 2 legs, threatening the whole seating arrangement. They’d better find room at the table before a colossal food fight starts! #KidLitPit #PB #STEM

@skscottwriter The whole time I’m like “why isn’t anyone showing up to this?!” 🤣

[Mari Kesselring @marikesselring]

I just sat in a Zoom meeting room for five minutes before realizing that I forgot to invite anyone but myself.

Congratulations to my friend and coworker, @abipollokoff! I'll be honest that poetry is an uncommon choice for me—but THIS, this sounds incredible!

[Abi Pollokoff @abipollokoff]

So far, 2023 has not been the year that I was expecting—but it's even better than I could have imagined. I am so (SO!) over the moon to share that my debut poetry collection night myths • • before the body found a home at @RedHenPress (1/ )

"You are a wonderful person. And you're amazing at your job."

Never underestimate the power of a kind word. You give nothing away by being kind—you only build others up.

My husband @PatrickHueller has his first picture coming out in August!

I can attest that it's SUPER cute—the plot born out of a game he played with my daughter during the darkness of spring 2020!

Preorder on Amazon: https://t.co/CGjzuee3r1, or order from your local bookstore!

[Mari Kesselring @marikesselring]

I hope every author that debuted in the darkness of 2020 gets a redo like this! Congratulations, @TheAdamSass! @fluxbooks

[Adam Sass @TheAdamSass]

By the time I got down to the convention floor for my signing and giveaway, the line was already snaked around the floor. If I didn’t have a job to do, I would’ve cried.

Putting my debut out in 2020 was lonely as hell. I’ve been waiting years for THIS moment. 🥹

It's sunny and the birds are singing and I'm choosing to ignore the demise of 🐦 and instead celebrate summer with a joyful #kidlit #giveaway. If you're still here, too, RT & follow by 5pm EST on Sun 7/30 for a chance to win a book & some #Mermaid swag! US only. 💙🧜‍♀️🧜‍♂️

@MissusM Ohhh! I know my Barbie had the skirt she’s wearing! 🤣

[Mari Kesselring @marikesselring]

@Fizzygrrl yes

[Mari Kesselring @marikesselring]

@MissusM I know several couples that just created a brand new last name! Genealogy researchers of the future will probably hate them...but we'll all be replaced by robots by then so who cares...
