@WriterMike85 She wrote a book called "Elsewhere" about death and the afterlife that is really something as well.

@BrianGehrlein Seriously. It’s like Margaret Wise Brown’s book where the bears wear fur coats. lol

“This Is a School” by @MrSchuReads and beautiful art by @VeronicaJArt — working in a school, gotta say, this book captures the magic in those walls…and all the possibility that awaits. A great one for teachers to revisit year after year. #kidlit

Watching Prince Harry on @60Minutes - reminded me of this novel by Monica Ali, which imagined that Diana set up her death and disappeared. It’s a fascinating “what if?”

@david_perell There’s something about this opening line in Anna Karenina. Simplicity. Perfection.

Adult fiction I’m reading now from @VersoBooks & @NewDirections …@StephanieLaCava one of my favorite writers - always has her finger on the pulse. And, new to me, Fleur Jaeggy — her book is a dark, cool trip.

The sublime simplicity of this beautiful picture book by @macbarnett & memorable art from @kateberubebooks — Oscar Wilde summed it up best: “Be yourself…everyone else is already taken.” #kidlit

OTD in 1995, Alta Vista launched. One of the 1st successful Web search engines, it went from 300K hits on its 1st day to >80M by 1997 and was the 11th most visited website in 1998. But it steadily lost ground in the early 2000s, primarily to Google, finally shutting down in 2013.

Very sad news. He was just at the beginning…

Went to the movies for the first time since Nov. 2019. A much changed experience, to say the least, but #Spencer was an absolute stunner. I highly recommend!

@alivestudios What piece of music did you use for this?

The ending reminded me of that line in ‘The Great Gatsby’: “They were careless people…they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness…and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” #whitelotus

@lizbedia @ErikaDraws @HarperChildrens @HarperCollinsCh It’s a special piece of art. I think it will be a very important read for kids this year. Congrats!

The conversation around #mentalhealth continues to evolve, especially in the last year. And it's so great to see new #kidlit like "Balloons for Papa" present the topic to children in such an empathetic and lyrical way. This book is a great intro to a tough topic.
