Me, in my #LibrarianFashion glory today, wearing my brand new crocheted #cardigan finished yesterday by my amazing wife. I’m a lucky man!
Distance shot: Sitting on the Story Corner throne wearing my new “granny squares” crochet masterpiece. More fashion info, next pic. Big polka dot Storytime carpet slightly visible, low bookshelves behind, tons o books on display. Standing over in the Story Corner, back to camera, arms outstretched, showing off the full glory of the wildly coloured, ever-square-different crochet beauty of the back and sleeve panels. Paired with black jeans and red Converse. Other fashion comments, next pic… Close up shot: torso, neck to almost waist. Beauty of the multicoloured crochet squares of the cardigan highlighted, along with the black button-up shirt with tiny white flowers that’s paired with rich, dark blue tie covered in small flowers of many colours, a bunch of them matching the hues in the granny squares. Gorgeous! Close up of my red Converse-clad shoe stepping on the red library kick stool, black jeans riding up a little so that my blue socks with multi-hued pseudo-leopard-print blotches are visible.

No tie for my #LibrarianFashion today?

Symbiosis, friends.

Uplift the authors and uplift the illustrators. Equally. It takes both to make picture book magic.

In our podcast discussions we wax poetic about the writer’s text, the illustrator’s artwork and the beautiful interplay between the two mutually enhancing elements.

Listen in.

Kudos to picture book authors like @fuse8.bsky.social who boost illustrators like this!

Picture book authors, get thee an illustrator so talented that they can adapt an ostrich hand puppet into a secretary bird. The co-star of POP! GOES THE NURSERY RHYME, thanks to the craftsmanship of one @atsurumi.bsky.social. Note how they meticulously painted the eyeballs.

Give us a listen to see why we appreciate this bereavement book so much.

Want to share how you zhuzh up something in your #LibrarianFashion repertoire?

See co-host, Chris’s examples below…
exlibrismrhunt.bsky.social @ExlibrisMrHunt @exlibrismrhunt.bsky.social · Apr 2
I sure love a shirt that, when the cuffs are zhuzhed, they roll up to reveal a different pattern from the body and sleeves generally.

Also, I’m a big fan of Van Wijk tie knots and tie bars too.

Can’t go wrong with a cardigan either.

#LibrarianFashion
Selfie, shot on an upward angle, one arm crossing my body so that the rolled shirt cuff (with tiny blue and black checkered pattern) is visible. Generally also visible is my grey, knit cardigan and my tie (see next image ALT)…and my slightly smiling, raised eyebrows face (with neat, trim beard; black, plastic glasses frames; high, tight fade, faux hawked haircut). Close up showing my tie, with three-tiered loop knot (the Van Wijk style) and plaid-like diagonal stripes in hues of light vs dark greys, blues and black; plus my silvery cross-hatched pattern metal tie bar to hold the tie in place; also black shirt with repeated dark blue micro patterns of something evoking…maybe…mycelium, constellations, dendrites, synapse maps…?

Well, that was an odd & wonderful read! Aiko stumbles across former astro-dogs from early space exploration that now have a secret planetary colony. Jammed packed illustrative details (incl some little gross ones, for kids that are observant).

Large variety of dogs…

Cover of Aiko and the Planet of Dogs. It features a girl with two giant black buns hairdo and very surprised circle eyes sitting up in a bed surrounded by tons of dogs of many varieties (a lot of them just white furred, but many in odd orangey or pinkish tones).
