During @authorjasonchin.bsky.social 's session we saw where the amazing illustrations for his books happen! "Hurricane" is an incredible story of the community of Hatteras as well as full of fascinating information about hurricanes and the scientists 1/2

The @picturebooksummit.bsky.social presentation by @bethanyhegedus.bsky.social was inspirational! She showed us how to change preachy pieces to amazing ones by using the question cape, the playful want, the many-paths mirror and more! I have many new tricks in my bag now! #PBSummit
