The fact that we can watch a baby living fossil crawl into our hands and then watch them disappear back into the sea like little time travelers will never cease to amaze me. (this magical moment brought to u by the hard work of horseshoe crab conservationists, ty! tinyurl.com/2acww34p)

Día 16/30 haciendo ilustraciones tradicionales.

Happy 5 year anniversary of #kidlitartpostcard. !!!🎆 🥝My very own happy childhood memory, here!🍎 Hi! I'm Kocona a children's book illustrator. I love drawing characters full of big emotions and tasty food. I'm currently seeking representation #kidlitartist #kidlitpostcard #kidlit

Experiments in adapting my style for a (future) graphic novel are officially underway 👀 I love seeing sketch to sample art transformations, so I wanted to share one with y'all.

My first #KidLitArtPostcard “You, as a kid.” When I was a child, I always stuck my feet up into the air and imagined the ceiling was the floor. There was so much open space for me to be free.

It’s #kidlitartpostcard day once again but this time there’s a theme. Me as a child? Yes I was a gremlin at one point (still am at heart) I liked drawing Dino’s and dragons. I give myself dragon wings and a robot antenna. My child self practicing drawing the wings they wear. #kidlitart

Everything’s Coming Up Rainbow 🌈 Celebrating #KidLitArtPostcard Day and PRIIIIIIDE 🤘🏻 As a Queer and Trans artist I thrive in a bright and silly world where any and all characters can be exactly who they are 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🦄

Happy June #kidlitartpostcard Day ! And HAPPY PRIDE EVERYONE🏳️‍🌈 I hope y'all have the best time...even if a rogue rain cloud kidnaps your son. It happens. (Btw hello, I'm K. Risa McLoughlin, a queer kidlit illustrator making picture books! Repped by Lori Steel @steelworksliterary.bsky.social )

Hi! I'm Jenny, an illustrator and artist based in Houston, TX. This is my first time doing a #kidlitartpostcard I'd like to think little me would be proud. (Speaking of, happy pride everyone!) 🙂🌈

Celebrating 5 years of #KidLitArtPostcard w/ the theme of "You, as a kid.” Don’t worry, I managed to somersault over the mailbox, although I did mangle a fingernail! I’m Brian, rep’d by @kaitlynleann17.bsky.social at @bradfordlitfest.bsky.social - you can see what I’m up to at briankirbystudio.com.

Could this be FIVE years? Yes, indeed. 5 years of #kidlitartpostcard day!

I'm running really late for #kidlitartpostcard today, but here's a delightful experience I had as a young man who just watched the Christopher Reeve Superman. Seeking new representation. jasonhendrickson.com [email protected] IG: HendricksonCreative

The spirograph, though 🌟 Mashing up a starter pack with this theme is a brilliant concept 😍 Nicola is a gem 💎

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Sheree is the dog queen of Illo-land. 🐕 👑

I swear everything Michael touches turns to artistic magic. If someone needed cover art, he'd be at the top of my list to suggest.

Mili's magical every time 🪄 And an incredible technical digital artist, just sayin'...

Y'all check out Brooke and then follow her if you want to smile more ☀️

#HappyPride and #KidLitArtPostcard day! I'm Clay Adamah, a published illustrator of #KidLitArt Since the theme is "yourself as a kid" and it's #Pride y'all! 🌈 I drew myself growing into the joyful human I am today. #ProtectTransKids and #LetTransKidsBloom 🏳️‍⚧️ clayadamah.wixsite.com/clayadamah

Working on mine today! Have you started yet?

It's been a little while since I got to play with traditional media. Fun fact the oil pastels were given to me as a thank you gift by a classmate I tutored in HS nearly two decades ago, but they still work just fine!

CALL YOUR REPS NOW! SPREAD THE WORD! HR 2616 was snuck onto the calendar for a vote TOMORROW. This is a pro book banning bill which seeks to ban ALL books by or about trans individuals.

We are delighted to announce that applications for our third CAG Mini Grant are live! It's hard to make the comics YOU want to make when the cost of living keeps rising. So this Mini Grant is here to offer a little breathing room: groceries, childcare, whatever you need. forms.gle/J7V7frhTZvH7...

9 more PBs on my very long list of masterful contributions to the lives of readers. I don't create for critics. I create in solidarity and community w/ other marginalized+allied creators bc that's the world we need to build. We don't need more critics. We need more access and care. #BeAnAmbassador

🔔 Bidding for WNDB’s Let’s Diversify Publishing Auction is NOW OPEN! Check out all the details and listings at our auction site below (🔗 also in bio) 💻 diversifypub.givesma... 📅 Thursday, May 7th - Monday, May 11th (closes at 9 PM Eastern)

Ok. We all had our day to talk shit and be angry. But it's Wednesday now and I'd love to encourage the kidlit community to focus on our real fight. There are now 2 book banning bills introduced on the federal level. 7661, which we largely know about but now 2616, too. It's call your reps o'clock!

I love this idea!!! I'm in. #BeAnAmbassador

The 2025 Nat Ambassador for Young People’s Lit estimated that “94.7 percent of kids' books are crud.” So I am responding to @katemessner.com call to turn this into a positive opportunity to share books we 🩷 A small sampling of some great #KidLit I’ve read recently. #BeAnAmbassador #NonCrudKidLit

Just nine out of the hundreds and hundreds of picture books I could list that blow me away with their level of quality, craftsmanship, cleverness, power, and voice. Fellow creators: Thank you for your work, grit, and passion. Our books are not the problem, the systems are. #BeAnAmbassador

Why was six afraid of seven? Because if they were seen together everyone would start shouting their names for no reason whatsoever. #DadJoke #SixSeven
