I’m writing back matter for a narrative fiction picture book and realizing I have enough content for an entire nonfiction picture book…and there are currently no nonfiction picture books about the topic. #writing #kidlit #picturebooks

I love watching my seedlings grow. Some sprout in a day and others take weeks of careful watering, specific temperatures, and lighting schedules. When I can’t see it, I have to have faith that they are growing. All will have an important role in my garden. All are worth the wait. #growing #spring

I was supposed to do some gardening today, but then it snowed…so clearly no gardening happened. Spring can be so cruel. However, I did get to finish reading through my weekly library stack and that was just as fulfilling. #kidlit #spring #picturebooks #librarylove

Happy Birthday to me! I'll be treating myself to a trip to my local book store. I'll keep my eyes peeled for newly released picture books. I wonder what I'll find. #kidlit #picturebooks

Remy’s fifth birthday is this week. Last year he chose rainbow LEGO dinosaur as his theme(s). I think this year’s cake will somehow be even more repulsive than the rainbow food dye. Can you spot the “monster poop?”

I’m in love with Megan Pomper’s and Maia Hoekstra’s WHAT MAKES A BIRD. It’s all of the questions your kid will ask and all of the questions that flit and fly through your mind about what makes a bird a bird…or anything, anything. The metaphor is everything. @mpomper.bsky.social
