The Memory Box A Book About Grief “I want to go everywhere we’ve been, everywhere you’ve been, everywhere we wanted to go.” Love how Thea Baker illustrated a synchro float and places around the world. #France #Paris2024 #EiffelTower #SynchronizedSwimming #ArtisticSwimming #grief

If you are a #kidlit fan and passing through Fresno, be sure to visit Petunia’s Place. Their customer service is the perfect balance of “Do you need any help?” and “I’ll let you browse.”

Thrilled to see Drew Daywalt & Benson Shum using their talents to help kids Get Involved @ CHLA. ❤️ For years we’ve been told that children’s hospital books are too “niche” for publishing professionals to embrace, but THEY have done it! chla.org/blog/hospital-…

One of the most important departments in any school is the library. Because if a kid can't read, how can they access any kind of learning? It's time we started treating the library with the staffing, resources + respect it deserves. #edutwitter #EduTwt #teaching #schools

It’s childhood cancer awareness month. Not as glamorous as pink propaganda in October, so it doesn’t get the attention needed. Please listen to these stories as families share.

30,000 STITCHES by Amanda Davis & Sally Wern Comport has a strong message of patriotism, balancing the sadness and hope felt today. Even after all these years, I teared up when reading it to students this week. #kidlit 🎨 Amanda Davis: Order MOONLIGHT MEMORIES!

A boy with braids was wondering how many “hair” books we have. Looked it up. We have 20. He scrolled through, disappointed that none had braids on the cover. So I found him one with braids on the cover. Since I was so good at finding, he asked for the Inventor Ninja book instead.

“I Absolutely, Positively LOVE MY SPOTS” by Lid’ya C. Rivera & Nina Maya vibrantly fills a need. Many kids feel alone due to physical differences such as birthmarks, eczema, NF1, or vitiligo. This book provides an invitation for readers to celebrate uniqueness. #kidlt

California K-2 #elementaryteachers… Do you have new state-Mandated expectations that require 220 minutes of direct instruction daily? Leaving #teachers with only 20 minutes of unscheduled time? Our teachers are overwhelmed & I suspect this isn’t actually statewide as advertised.
