I’ve been doodling little book characters like this guy here for almost a decade now, and I’ve only just recently, FINALLY figured out a universe to make some stories about them in. Hoping it all goes somewhere.

A great review from Publishers Weekly for Saved by the Smell, the first installment of my upcoming chapter book series, My Mad Scientist Mom! You can preorder the book, as well as the second book in the series—No More Mr. Mice Guy—anywhere books are sold.

I’m thrilled to share that Welcome to Scare School has made it onto BookPal’s OWL Award shortlist! It’s now in the running for the award with just two other books. OWL stands for “Outstanding Works of Literature.” Also “Oh dang this is Wicked cooL.” THANKS, BookPal!

Welcome to Scare School has been out just a few months but has received some awesome acclaim and honors: it’s an Amazon Editors’ Pick, a Literati featured title, an Indigo Best Book of 2024, and a nominee for an OWL Award and a Texas Bluebonnet Award. Very proud of Bash and my team at @simonkids!

Stormie and I just finished the 2nd book in the Scare School Diaries series. Bash helped us to learn that it’s okay to be scared sometimes. Forest Frights is just as cute as the first book. Thanks for sharing with #BookPosse, @jarrett-lerner.bsky.social #SimonKids
