Hey everyone,

#KidLit4Ceasefire has now fundraised the evacuation of 10 people.

I am focusing on the next two families.
One family of 6 and another of just 3, with a 4-month-old baby. I need 500 items for this fundraiser.

I only have 218 at the moment.

The universe was telling me it’s time to get rid of Meta, so I got caught in that AI moderation suspension cesspool. But on the bright side, I can cut the apron strings from the billionaire who stole my IP 🤷🏽‍♀️

Four of the Big Five Publishers Sign Letter Urging Congress to Restore IMLS
Shuttering IMLS would be "an act of monumental neglect, violating the very foundation of America and what it stands for as a country," the publishers assert.

One poignant and heartbreaking, written in verse. One hilarious and heartfelt, written in prose with text message and lists. MG librarians, add ALL THE BLUES IN THE SKY by Renee Watson and AS YOU WISH by @nashaejwriter.bsky.social to your list.

COVER REVEAL!
My new #mglit #historicalfiction novel is the I SURVIVED series meets THE WAR THAT SAVED MY LIFE set in the Dust Bowl. Coming 8/19/25 from @fsgbooks.bsky.social. I can’t wait to share it with you! #schoollibrarian
Book Cover with title “WHERE ONLY STORMS GROW.” A boy and girl (twins) in 1930s farming attire brace bravely as a huge black dust storm rises behind them. Dirt blows around them and an old farm and windmill stand in the distance. “By Alyssa Colman” is visible at the bottom.
