I’m in a gym with 30+ kids yell-singing Golden, how’s your Friday night going?

Hey #kidlit bluesky! A friend recently pointed out how her book’s Amazon ranking is affected by reviews. If you have a picture book that needs a boost let me know! If it’s on our Libby, me and the boy can read it right away, otherwise we can make a request through the library. #picturebooks #booksky

We just finished How to Eat Fried Worms by Thomas Rockwall. I read it as a kid, but rereading now I can definitely identify with the parents. My legit response to my kid eating worms would probably be, at least cook ‘em fancy. #booksky #readingwithkids #kidlit

While I was drawing this the boy made a request that I turn the art into a coloring page. We thought it might be fun to spread some reading love so I’m offering it up as a free download on gumroad 7008109455774.gumroad.com/l/nbpfcd #kidlit #coloringpage #library #teachers #homeschooling #booksky

Good morning, #kidlitartpostcard day! I’m always excited for the little art gallery that pops up today. It’s such a joy to be part of it. This month, I’m sharing a spread from Luna’s Rainbow, which is officially OUT ON SUBMISSION! I’m so happy this story is out in the world and in editors’ hands.

Neighborhood cat decided our front door was THE PLACE to give birth and now this is the current situation in my bathroom. 🥰

We went to see the Audubon exhibit at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. The boy and I also read the graphic novel: Audubon, on the Wings of the World before we went. So now when we are out and spot a new bird S. gets out his finger guns and goes “Pew pew! I’m Audubon!” #birdsky #booksky

More convos with kids while drawing in public: Them: “Whatcha doing?” Me: “Drawing.” Them: “Can I see?” Me: *shows them* Them (skeptically): “Did you do that all by yourself?”

It’s hard not to be filled with rage every minute of every day right now. But I spent part of my week drawing in a theatre lobby where I could hear my son’s theatre class get up on stage and one by one sing their favorite songs to wild applause. I’m surviving on kid joy infusions.

I do a lot of drawing at the climbing gym and the climbing kids all drop by to weigh in on my art. I, in turn, ask them how they would solve certain visual problems to see what they say. I love these little conversations ❤️

I made a sticker to celebrate our book love! You can get them at our Etsy sticker shop! stickwithloveco.etsy.com I made the promo code BLUSKYBOOKS for $1 off our new sticker for BlueSky peeps 📚 #booksky #kidlitart #library #booklover #sticker

After I saw this post I requested every Charlie and Mouse book from my little East Texas library, and then used ILL to borrow and read them all. #kidlit #booksky

We are unintentionally having a bookish cat reading week and I love it. Thanks to any #kidlit author who ever wrote a story about a cat and a boy, from the mom of a cat boy ❤️ Negative Cat by Sophie Blackall and The Lost Library by Rebecca Stead and Wendy Mass. #booksky

It’s starting! Moths around the porch light. Wrens exploring the yard. Tiny flowers are poking up to say hey. #kidlitart #sciart #birdsky #spring

For blackout day, we’re going fishing 🎣 #kidlit #kidlitart #smallactsofresistance

I’ve finally convinced myself to make the calls. It may be just a tiny grain of dissent that will be ignored by the roster of despicable lickspittles that represent me, but I’m going to start piling on those grains.

Latest read with the boy, his pick. Think regency era steampunk adventure story, also they have boats that fly to Mars. A little old for my kid, but he really enjoyed it and I like to let him read what he wants as long as it’s not crazy inappropriate for his age. 😉 #booksky

The best parenting thing I’ve done this year is convince my kid that watching American Crafts on PBS with me is a good time.

I’ve got Spring and flowers on the brain. Just trying to make it through February. #kidlitart #wildflowers #kidlit

cookie making time!

Me: “Look! the pond froze over.” My 8yo: “Where’s the shovel?” **He needed to go out and bust an air hole through the ice for our frogs.

Who’s counting this weekend? WE ARE! #greatbackyardbirdcount #kidlitart #birdsky

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.
