It’s past time Congress. Do your job. We elected you to represent ‘we the people’ and defend our constitution. If you are too afraid to do what you know needs to be done, then step aside so that someone with courage and integrity can do it.

It’s a scary time for all of us, but particularly the kids in Minneapolis.
I would like to offer free 30 minute virtual school visits to talk about picture books. I’m an author and illustrator and we can tailor it to your class.
Please reach out. #kidlit

Barnes and Noble is running their 25%off preorder sale for a few more days! The third (and funniest in my opinion) is due out February 27th. Order now for a great deal!

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Oh by the way, don’t forget you can ask your library to order nearly any book you want to read but don’t want to buy. And as authors we love libraries buying our books & readers being able to access them through libraries.
