#kidlitart Introducing, Cupcake McSparkle-tail!! A character from a #picturebook my wife @resslerwrites.bsky.social and I are working on. This sketch is from a dummy that will be sent out soon. #amquerying

The knight usually saves the princess, but when he falls out of the story through A RIP IN THE PAGE, the Narrator must scramble to get to The End. He makes the best of a bad situation using gelato, a Pegasus named Cupcake-McSparkletail, and a princess who doesn't need a knight #bluepit📖 #Q #PB

An unfortunate misunderstanding between author and illustrator turns a spooky ghost story into a nonsensical goat story. Will they ever be able to get on the same page? For a hilarious meta mashup, WELCOME TO GHOSTVILLE…or is it Goatsville? #Bluepit📖 #PB #Q

Louie thought being a pirate would be more exciting, but it’s mostly boredom until one day he discovers the real treasure: music! Now he’s teaching his salty crew to rock, but the grumpy captain isn’t having it…or is he? BAND OF PIRATES is a swashbuckling tale of tunes and teamwork #bluepit📖 #PB #Q
