Love this story of a Maori octopus spotted riding a Mako shark’s back: tinyurl.com/3dc6pmbd Do you know they have also been observed riding jellyfish? My book OCTOPUS ACROBATICS is jam packed with fun facts like these about one of Earth’s most fascinating creatures.

Wonderful 2-day author visit to Bedford Elementary School in Bedford PA last week. I even signed a Cicada Symphony book to a student who had a “pet” cicada. 🤪 Kids are the best!

Some days we could use a hug…you’re in luck! Today is National Hugging Day! And if you have no one to hug right now, it is perfectly OK to hug a book. tinyurl.com/4w4ntdbd

I’d love to start a positive thread. Sometimes our significant others do cute things they don’t even realize are cute. My husband likes to cook and when he’s making a new recipe he prints it and puts little check boxes next to the ingredients he needs buy. Tell me a cute thing your person does.

Thrilled OCTOPUS ACROBATICS made it into Betsy Bird’s 2024 Rhyming Picture Book celebration, along with many other deft rhymers! @albertwhitman.bsky.social

Had an amazing #authorvisit to Sanders Corner Elem! We talked about STEM, fractured tales, and rhyme. One student knew you can make energy from algae (what Beauty and The Beaker is abt) and another told me he’s writing a book. When I get down on the world, these are the moments that lift me up.

Such a great author visit to Newton-Lee Elementary just before Thanksgiving—Thanks for making me feel at home!

It’s almost turkey time! If you’re looking for a fun, silly, rhyming, read-aloud Thanksgiving story with heart (bonus, it has a craft inside!) please check out my book with Simona Sanfilippo, HOW TO HIDE A TURKEY. It’s is a good reminder that Thanksgiving really is all about the side dishes.

Happy World Nursery Rhyme week! In my version, Mary is a lonely scientist who sets out to make a pet for herself to keep her company…what could possibly go wrong? youtu.be/AirlrZeEtks

The clouds obstructed the Super Blue Moon, but gave us this spectacular sunset instead. I’m okay with it.
