Are you an #latinx#kidlit author or illustrator? @adriprints and I invite you to join our private FB group, Kidlit Latinx. We’ve created a safe space to ask questions about the publishing industry, share opportunities and support eachother. ¡La unión hace la fuerza!
@MikeishaDache@Scholastic Another option is to adopt a local PTO & donate funds for book fair petty cash. It is heartbreaking to turn kids w books away b/c they’re missing a little $$. A stocked petty cash allows volunteers to help make up the missing funds without making a big deal out of it.
@TheJosieMarie I feel this. I can’t bring myself to cancel my dad’s subscriptions…but I did unsubscribe from all his junk mailings - he was never gonna read those emails! El duelo es algo bien raro.
Happy to kick off Hispanic Heritage Month with the first installment of my blog series on children’s books creators by country! Here are some kid lit creators of Haitian descent to read and support! Did I miss anyone? I know I did!

Hasta sus 18 años, Olinda Ruiz conocía poco sobre la historia política de Paraguay y el pasado de su familia. Pero descubrió que sus abuelos estuvieron involucrados en la época más oscura de su país. Escucha este episodio producido por @radioambulante https://t.co/GyKdkeLKWo
@radioambulante@elhilopodcast Muchísimas gracias por esta historia. Es cierto lo que dicen en el episodio, cabe resaltar que tan fuerte es el silencio en el Paraguay que recién después de dos generaciones se pueden ir dando casos así. Justo hoy salió esta nota: https://t.co/CC0iXOqdzO
@Ciaralovesbooks@erinsiskabooks @acuevaswrites @jasminnemendez @apalessandri @adriprints Again @acuevaswrites and @jesskimwrites , also Epic Fail by Paolo Cartaya and Falling Short by Ernesto Cisneros. For lower MG I think Crystal Allen’s Maya Tibbs is a good series.
@Ciaralovesbooks@erinsiskabooks Any specific holes in your catalog you’re looking to fill? Some easy picks: @acuevaswrites ‘s CUBA and EL ECLIPSE TOTAL DE NESTOR LÓPEZ, and @jasminnemendez ‘s ANIANA DEL MAR
PB: see all Ana Siqueira and @apalessandri , also @adriprints’s FLAN & Nochebuena. Many more to rec!
