Happiest of book birthdays to @pippinmathur.bsky.social and DINOSAUR DAYS!

Dinosaurs don't always know how to behave, but they certainly have a lot of fun. Join a #dinosaur as she romps through her day, wreaking havoc in this joyful celebration of childhood. #dinosaurs #picturebook

Here’s a little something for #kidlitartpostcard day. I’d love to illustrate picture books and early readers/chapter books in addition to my own books. A big fan of fantasy, sweet & funny! #kidlit #kidlitart #picturebooks #illustrator

I was the visiting author for the Young Authors celebration in the Shenandoah Valley.

For 4 days, I gave presentations and talked to students, teachers, reading specialists and librarians about books, writing and art.

It was an amazing, inspiring & uplifting experience. #schoolvisitsarethebest

I just wrapped up my first big holiday market and had a great time. The best part was connecting to people who loved my stuff, especially new art like my paper maché witches, painted ornaments and clay gnomes & mushrooms. It’s so cool to meet new people in person who love your work. 🩷

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! I’m deep in prep mode for my first big craft market this weekend so I’m combing a little something new with a little something from last year. I’d love to illustrate other writers books, early chapter books and early graphic novels! #kidlitpostcard

To say I’m very disappointed, incredibly angry, very depressed or extremely worried seems inadequate but I must go on.

I’ll share my light and when I can’t, you can. When we can’t, they can. We’ll light these dark times together. #kidlitartpostcard #kidlitpostcard
