Thank you @tcbrbookreview.bsky.social for your review! #environmenfriendly #ecoeducation #conservation #teachers #libraries www.thechildrensbookreview.com/enough-to-sh...

(Please boost cause I deleted the other post when it became clear OP just wrote a bad post and was just looking for advice.)

In light of the conversation about how hard it is to promote your own book: Post a link to buy your book here and I’ll boost it cause you destroyed yourself to get it done, your publisher won’t help you sell it, and you deserve cheers and admiration for your accomplishment.

Reviews coming in for ENOUGH TO SHARE! Now releasing in May! The Children’s Book Review calls it “Powerful.” Environmentfriendly #Conservation #Ecoeducators #teachers #librarians

BUTTERFLY SEA had the loveliest write up on Jilanne Hoffman's blog. Please take a moment to read this and other posts too. What I love about @jilanne.bsky.social is that she thinks deeply about what goes into a picture book. jilannehoffmann.com/2025/12/12/b... #kidlit #CanKidLit #KidLitMegaFeed

Curious why a standard picture book is 32 pages in traditional #KidLit trade publishing? And why NOT all 32 pages are for story content? In this #PictureBooks101 post, I explain picture book format & construction: debbieohi.com/2025/09/pict...
