Humorous Cover art with "Abracadabra" hand letterered on top. There is a magician's hat floating slightly above a table that has a magic wand on it. Inside the hat is a cute, "mean" squirrel holding a scared carrot character who is about to be eaten.

Illustration by Gina Perry. Three young kids are shouting Tape!, Paper!, Cardboard! while looking fierce decked out in handmade costumes. Lots of mess surrounds them and the center character is standing on a box.

Tip for anyone looking to browse the #kidlitartpostcard hashtag today - the Flashes app lets you view the posted images in chronological order, allowing you to isolate today’s postcards. Instagram does not, mixing in previous months and years. More info: briankirbystudio.com/flashes-for-...

Harriet Tubman #quilt by my Mom, Vera P. Hall, who makes quilts celebrating Black people who fought for their own freedom. This seems to be the crowd favorite of the “We Didn’t Wait for Freedom” series. Happy #Juneteenth #quilting
Colorful quilt of a nighttime scene with Harriet Tubman in an orange jacket and purple dress carrying a rifle. She is leading other figures who walk behind her.
