Played “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” for a five year old girl, and she told me, “You know, I do”

She’s on to something! 🙌

We strongly condemn @CondéNast’s consolidation plans for Teen Vogue, a move that is clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most. More from our statement:

We’re over here just “bursting w creative ideas & inspiration” Kazoo magazine made the NYT Wirecutter “Best of” 2025.

Every issue of #kazoomagazine contains an original short story featuring a fierce girl. Beautifully illustrated by Jesse White. Read #1 NYT bestselling author Gayle Forman in our latest issue, no 38.

LOOK AT THIS INCREDIBLE POSTER!!

OMG, Kazoo is worth...a kazillion dollars!

“She felt that if a rule didn’t make the world a better, fairer, more beautiful place, then it was her duty to break it” is maybe not a message you’ll find in other kids magazines, but @kazoomagazine’s comic on the Godmother of Punk, Vivienne Westwood, says all that and more. (🖍️ Katie Skelly)

Sesame Street will be putting a huge collection of episodes on YouTube starting in January 2026 This is a fantastic way to educate children It’s a form of resistance. Shows like Sesame Street teach love, tolerance, acceptance & more. These lessons are crucial for the long fight ahead.

Q: Why print? A: This FLIP-the-FLAP FUN cover of @kazoomagazine’s Razzle Dazzle issue, that’s why. (Well, one of the many reasons why kids love physical books & magazines. Subscribe to Kazoo & we’ll show you 272 more.) 🖍️@lydiaburton.art 💡@sah_rah #printlives #kidsbooks #flipbooks #booksky

Thanks to NPR’s Marketplace & Fast Company for covering some good news—about Kazoo! “Subscription-based children's magazines are revitalizing the genre”https://www.marketplace.org/story/2025/07/29/subscription-based-childrens-magazines-are-having-a-moment

#ALAAC25 It was an honor to celebrate Dr. Carla Hayden at ALA Annual—a visionary who has shown us, time and again, what it means to lead with wisdom, purpose, and grace. Learn "What Gives Carla Hayden Hope" at American Libraries. bit.ly/4eskLzf

“Pride Puppy! and books like it aren’t controversial—they offer children a chance to see themselves and others with empathy and understanding. Inclusive literature doesn’t push a particular belief; it simply acknowledges that all families and identities deserve to be part of the story.”

Books with Black/brown characters and LGBTQ+ characters are getting banned because banning books is the first step towards banning people. Contact your local library and school board and tell them you support the freedom to read, for everyone.

Some of my favorite folks to work with, @kazoomagazine.com had me create this search and find for their Lead the Way issue. ❤️🍦☀️

I see you Tennessee. 🏳️‍⚧️🩷🩵🤍

When a kid gets lost in an issue of Kazoo magazine, she finds herself in a world in which girls are celebrated for being scientists, artists, activists, athletes, & more—and suddenly the future feels ✨full of possibility✨.

my main takeaway after spending the afternoon at the national history day competition is that the kids are pretty alright. also, that reactionaries are right to fear the consequences of kids learning the truth.

📚 I loooove the magazine Kazoo for my kids. kazoomagazine.com. Branded as a magazine "for girls who aren't afraid to make some news" it's just a really beautiful collection of stories, activities, information, crafts, and images.

The PBS Kids app is one of the few things you can trust your kids to play around with on a computer. All the shows that you can stream are good and entertaining. Nothing positive comes from getting rid of this, they're just trying to make life worse for everyone www.nytimes.com/2025/05/06/u...

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor stopped by to inspire our young readers in Kazoo magazine’s STRONG issue: “Noisemakers: It takes courage to be stubborn and never give up trying after something in life knocks you down. The act of getting up and trying again is the very definition of bravery.”

Nice to see Kazoo magazine’s comics collection, “Noisemakers: 25 Women Who Raised Their Voices & Changed the World” on this list of “Good Trouble.” #booksky www.nysoclib.org/blog/good-tr...

More important than ever to celebrate Independent Bookstore Day, Saturday April 26. Pick up some books (& the latest Kazoo magazine) at an Indie near you. (Kazoo is on stands at these & many fine bookshops all over the the US.) #booksky #independentbookstoreday #kidsbooks

Saturday is Independent Bookstore Day! When you’re MORALLY OBLIGATED to BUY BOOKS FROM CUTE BOOKSTORES. For Chicago Indie Bookstore day, I made two prints, available at participating Chicagoland indies! I’ll also be at @bookedevanston.bsky.social from 12-2pm signing prints and books. Come say hi!

Enough is enough. We're breaking up with Amazon. And throwing a Spring Break-Up Sale to celebrate. (50% off all magazines on our own website.) Supporting small business & each other can't change everything—but it can change some things.
