Happy #worldliteracyday ! What's one book that has made a difference in your life?

#books #raisingreaders #kidlit #literacy

It's not too late for a #haikusaturday, right?

Here's one in honour of our new quail chicks:

Five make a handful
Tiny wings, thin legs, fresh fluff
New life--strong and frail

It's been a while, but I just wanted to jump on to share a great #middlegrade #mg #kidlit read--Just Jerry: How Drawing Shaped My Life. This was such a beautiful memoire and I loved jumping into Jerry Pinkney's childhood world. It reminded me of why the arts matter so much. Highly recommend.

Who else is gearing up for #nanowrimo this year?

I’m not sure if #haikusaturday is a thing here yet, but I’m always happy to read and share #haiku :)

Here’s mine today:

Tangled hair blowing
Limbs and laughter, crunching leaves
Autumn explorer

Our latest library haul—can you guess my 3yo’s current obsession? 🐢💚🐢

There’s almost nothing better than a walk through the forest in autumn 🧡🍂🍁

Just sent off a few queries! Querying is certainly an act of hope. Hats off to my fellow writers in the midst of #amquerying!

Hi #kidlit friends :) I feel like the last kid chasing the bus. Is this the new place??
