#kidlit #PB It's a book that kids & adults can use, especially those who struggle to say 'no' and end up depleting themselves in the process. The illustrations by Dan Dougherty do a fantastic job of being minimalistic, pairing well with the words of this book by DJ Corchin. I'd say YES to this book.

#kidlit SIDE WALK CHALK by Jen Fier Jasinski/Lea Marie Ravotti With minimal words and colorful illustrations, the author & illustrator join forces to help a young, shy girl come out of her shell and join the others, in turn creating a warm welcome for other new arrivals in their neighborhood. 👍📚

My 7th picture book OVER IN THE MANGROVES illus by Dikshaa Pawaskar #scholastic releases July 15 🌳🌳🌳. It's a peek into the Sunderbans Mangroves Forest, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, that straddles India & Bangladesh. Available for pre-order. Link in my bio 😁 #ecosystem #mangrove #pb #ece #rhyming

#kidlit 👍🏽📚Beautiful illustrations and heartwarming message about standing up for friends and in the process finding one’s own strength !! #kidlitart @staceybyer.bsky.social

#kidlit #PB This is a well-written and fun book that answers the age-old question of what curry is. Maria's @msmarianayagam.bsky.social lyrical text and Geeta's (Geeta Ladi) beautiful, fun illustrations bring this book to life. I love the recipe at the back and will definitely be trying it.

Hello #kidlit friends. Hope you have a wonderful summer building sand castles. I’m Ramya, author/illustrator trying to get settled after moving. Hopefully I’ll start querying soon. #kidlitartpostcard #kidlitart #kudlitartpostcardday
