Happy Hallowe'en to my Book Club friends.

By Jean-Jacques Sempé - an artist hero of great talent.

In stores today 'Lucky Dog Comes Home' from #pajamapress and written by John Spray. The story of one mailman, a few dogs, and the power to bring joy back to a grieving community—inspired by a celebrated WWII veteran. 🍁🗽

Imagine being inspired by the guy who did a cameo in Home Alone 2.

So nice to get such a great review. I loved illustrating this book. It's out now, available in all the usual places!

The Emperor's new clones. Leavitt, Noem and Bondi. Ugh.

No Kings 🐸

Out for a walk with a friend and we came across this frightened guy in Vancouver's Stanley Park. I hope he made it home ok. #stanleypark #vancouver #rewilding

Happy World Clean Up Day. It's a bit of a mess out there, get out and help clean things up! 😀 If you need to inspire the kids, why not pick up a copy of 'King of the Dump' by Tim Wynne-Jones and illustrated by me. You can get it online or #kidsbooks in Vancouver BC. #booksky #independent #bookstore

I dropped by Vancouver Kids Books on Broadway to sign King of the Dump: a picture book about recycling, green living, big machinery, recycling and learning to let of things we no longer need. Signed copies available at the Broadway location while supplies last. @groundwoodbooks.bsky.social

Thank you #vikkivansickle and #yourmorning. 'The Sustainable School' (Erica Fyvie, illustrated by me) is among wonderful new books that Vikki likes. If you like time capsules this book is for you! 🔥 You can see Vikki's great reporting at the 2:05 mark in this link: www.ctv.ca/shows/ctv-yo...

The Trumpot calling the kettle black.

Hear me ramble on about 'King of the Dump' in a CBC interview, Aug. 3 (8:00-8:30 AM PST) on 'North by Northwest' on CBC. My segment is in there somewhere. If you're busy snoozing It will be posted to NXNW 'CBC Listen' after the weekend. 👌https://www.cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-43-north-by-northwest

'Love is Love' Tote bags I did for the wonderful Market Kitchen, Granville Island Vancouver. Happy Pride Canada 🌈.

Read Tim and me rattle on about doing our new book! Exhilarating and fun, I promise! 💫 open-book.ca/News/Tim-Wyn...

Is it Global Garbage Man Day already! 👏Take a minute to remember the Sanitation men and women who keep our lives clean, neat and tidy! 🏆 Visit a dump. read a book, put something in the bin! Happy GGMD! 😍

I don't want to thump my chest and say we're the best - that's what our downstairs neighbour does, but I gotta say I'm so proud to be Canadian when our PM takes time for a flag raising ceremony for the LGBTQ community during Pride month. Lucky us, lucky Canada.🍁

Liberty my ass...

Every 5 minutes... #Trudeau #Canada #Mexico #Sheinbaum #Trump #Tariffs

By Norwegian artist Morten Morland, The Times cartoonist. He captures the infantile character of both the President and VP so well. I am inspired and slightly jealous of his skill.

It's the little things that can make your day. One brave little Mexican lime left and a trumpload of US lemons... untouched. 🥲 #dumptrump #impeachtrump #truenorth #canada

Proud to be on the ALA Rainbow Book List with 'All Our Love,' written by @karilynnwinters.bsky.social . LGBTQ+ and libraries always need our support but especially now in the US. Love is Love. Read a book! 🙂 🏳️‍🌈🇨🇦💞. Details: bit.ly/4gvTRpo #LGBTQ+ #loveislove #canadareads #allourlove #kidslit

Of course everyone but the orange menace will know I mean, Blame Trump. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXeW...

It's good to see a hero these days

Feeling some kind of way

If your cat disappears, check the drawers.

One of my favourite books from this past year. With pajamapress.ca

I'm usually pretty nice but this wanker brings out the worst in me... well he brings out the worst in the world. 🌎 #trumpresistance #truenorth #canada

It's a sad day with the insanity going on in the US. Trudeau supported LGBTQ+ along with other marginalized groups. I did this portrait not knowing his resignation was on the horizon. I guess this is as good a time as any to post it and say thank you. #canada #truenorth #lgbtq #trudeau

It's nice to remember the reason for the season... Happy Winter Solstice! ❄️🎄

Thanks Market Kitchen on Granville island for promoting local creators like me. 🇨🇦

Warm wishes for a bright and merry Yule! 🎄🎁❄️

Sometimes, when I'm not writing and rewriting a story that just isn't taking off... I like to do cartoons.

Windy seawall walk in Vancouver

Broom for Two, going strong even after Halloween because witches are always here. I loved doing this book with pajamapress.ca and the oh-so talented www.instagram.com/jmaruno2018/

Coming soon(ish)! King of the Dump. So happy to work with Groundwood again, illustrating this wonderful, touching story by Tim Wynne-Jones.
