“Although Ono is known by many solely because of her adjacency to the Beatles, Tolin centers her subject’s own rich, sometimes polarizing, life advocating for peace, creativity, and individuality.”

What a joy to speak to @affinitolit.bsky.social about CAN YOU IMAGINE? THE ART AND LIFE OF YOKO ONO. Why did I focus on butts? (That’s a question for myself.) #yokoono open.spotify.com/episode/3T1r...

🎙️ Had a fantastic conversation with @tcbrbookreview.bsky.social about CAN YOU IMAGINE? THE ART AND LIFE OF YOKO ONO by me and @yasimamura.bsky.social. The conversation took some fascinating turns and I hope you'll give it a listen! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i...

My story about a banned picture book was labeled “adult content!” You really can’t beat the irony.

So honored by this piece in Forbes on Can You Imagine? @yasimamura.bsky.social #yokoono #picturebook “Imamura’s dreamy, ethereal imagery amplifies Tolin’s triumphant text – infused with feminism and passion for art, love, and peace – and underscores Ono’s enduring impact on the global art world.”

Nice to see Forbes highlighting a #nonfictionpicturebook They could have added that grown-ups gain valuable lessons on art, gender, family, love, and peace in new Yoko Ono book. @lisatolin.bsky.social

So excited to be joining this @booksofwonder.bsky.social picture book panel with @brendanwenzel.bsky.social, Carmen Agra Deedy and Raul Colon! #canyouimagine? #yokoono

This picture book biography by @lisatolin.bsky.social and Yas Imamura is stunning in every way. An instant favorite!

Such a delight to talk to @jonfreadom.bsky.social and @penamerica.bsky.social!

A beautiful #PictureBook #biography looking at Yoko Ono as an artist in her own right, not just an appendage to John Lennon. Fascinating text, expressive art. by @lisatolin.bsky.social and Yas Imamura 💡📚👍#nonfictionpb

One month until CAN YOU IMAGINE? THE ART AND LIFE OF YOKO ONO, my book with Yas Imamura, is out in the world! It’s years in the making — 20, if you count from when I interviewed Yoko Ono for the AP! More on the book: www.simonandschuster.com/books/Can-Yo...

Thank you for the kind words @ajirving.bsky.social!

May I suggest two brand new, very cool children’s books by @kellyconroy.bsky.social and @authorlauragehl.bsky.social to make you forget all the things?

Well, it’s time.
