#bannedbookweek #freedomtoread #stopbookbans

An important read.

So thrilled that @slj.com called my and Megan Elizabeth Baratta's picture book, My Backyard Used to Be, "a meaningful addition to school and public libraries, as well as a lovely choice for readers to take home." #kidlit

What a fabulous book launch event at Schuler Books! My ❤️ is full! #kidlit

Teachers & Librarians! I am giving away one copy of my just-released PB, My Backyard Used to Be, to one U.S.-based teacher or librarian who likes & reposts this by October 1. #kidlit #Edusky #SchoolLibrarian. Themes: history, stewardship, outdoor play.

It's fun to see my book birthday recognized by @12x12challenge.bsky.social , which has been such a big part of my writing journey!

Do most #kidlit writers have their Instagram accounts public or private? Instagram is a bit of a mystery to me. In promoting my launch event, several local businesses suggested I make my story public so I can tag them and everyone can see it, but I'm not sure that I want all my info public. Thanks.

I'm thrilled to be featured on the @scbwi-mi.bsky.social blog today!! scbwimithemitten.blogspot.com/2025/09/book...

viviankirkfield.com/2025/09/23/b... I’m thrilled to celebrate my book birthday today on @viviankirkfield.bsky.social ‘s wonderful blog! Enter to win a copy of my book! #kidlit
