Mac Barnett on why my kid is my Teacher:

"Childhood is a long series of experiments... so much of the best #childrensliterature is experimental too. Kids read without tightly held notions of what a story can or should be... It’s an adult who is much more likely to be bothered." #kidlit #writermom

A book for adults about books for children, a rallying cry for art and imagination, and a celebration of the power of storytelling in all our lives.  Make Believe is bestselling children’s author Mac ...

A vibrant, cheerful digital illustration of a young Black girl with curly hair in puffs running joyfully through a green park. She wears a purple floral dress and a blue backpack. A playful white dog with yellow spots and a pink tongue runs beside her, while a bright pink bird flies overhead. The background features lush green trees, pink flowers, and a bright blue sky with a soft yellow sun. The mood is energetic and happy.
