;) Just recapping some scenes from the 13th Annual Hudson Children’s Book Festival ! I had the honor of attending alongside the amazing Debbie Dadey to talk about all things mermaids, dragons, ghosts and comics with some VERY enthusiastic readers of all ages. See y'all at the next event!!!

Looking forward to the Boston Kids Comic Fest! Angeli Rafer Art

Bad Kitty and me at the Hudson Children’s Book Festival !

Chatting with fellow authors at sunset and while sitting beside the Hudson River sounds so intellectual. What was our subject matter? Farts! I blame it all on Alan Katz and Angeli Rafer Art ! Hudson Children’s Book Festival

Love #BaileySchoolKids #audiobooks ! Thanks Tantor Audio and The Jennifer De Chiara Literary Agency !

So delighted to be attending the Hudson Children’s Book Festival tomorrow! To rub shoulders with so many fabulous writers and readers is rather awe inspiring to me! Hope you'll say hi to the 150 authors attending (including me). #authorcommunity #authors #books #festival HudsonValleyTourism

I ran across this quote & immediately thought of our beautiful children's book community. The generosity. The kindness. The support. There are so many lamps, lifeboats & ladders amongst us. So, I'm kicking off this week with thanks--thanks for each one of you! #kidlit #Gratitude

Carol's response is so lovely. 🥰

April 26 is the feast of Our Lady of Good Counsel. Perfect in virtue and love, she is always ready to assist us. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us!

I'm excited to put two of my favorite things together today: helping my local library and helping the earth. I'm doing a spring clean-up with a group and the weather is supposed to be lovely. Yeah for mermaids and our earth and libraries! Simon Kids Tantor Audio #mermaids
