Illustration of four stylized axolotls playing underwater. One rests gently on the bottom looking at a cute orange copopod. One has a dancing vibe. One is showing the dancing friend a cool plant. One is nuzzling another copopod. The water is green, loose moss floats about. The axolotls are various shades of pink and yellowy beige with bright pink and orange gills. Art by Gina Perry
Happy #KidLitArtPostcard day! I'm Gina Perry, an author and illustrator looking to work on new, cute picture book projects. I'm rep'd for books by Sean McCarthy Lit. See more work at: www.ginaperry.com #kidlitart
Red graphic with an illustration of a glass jar at the center. Within the jar is a mock-up hard copy of the picture book βThe Kimchi Fridgeβ, written by Tina Cho and illustrated by Tina Cho, forthcoming from Little Bee Books on October 6th. There are illustrations of kimchi in the upper right hand and lower left hand corners of the graphic. Additionally, there is a bright yellow starburst on the left hand side of the graphic containing the bookβs release date. The words βCoverβ and βRevealβ are sandwiching the book cover within the glass jar.
Red graphic with illustrations of kimchi in the upper right hand and lower left hand corners. At the center is a book description for βThe Kimchi Fridgeβ: Get ready to eat . . . It's kimchi time! On a cold day, Mina wants to warm up with a bowl of her Omma's kimchi stew. But when she slides to the kimchi fridge, it's empty! Text the aunties and neighbors, it's kimjang time! Soon Mina's home is filled with the warmth of laughter, family, and friendship as everyone gathers to make their own batch of mouth-watering kimchi. But when Mina realizes that her kimchi needs time to ferment and won't be ready to eat for months, what can she do to satisfy her craving? From the author of RICE FROM HEAVEN and THE OCEAN CALLS, comes a joyful, laugh-out-loud kimchi adventure filled with Korean food, k-pop dances, a great recipe, and a loving reminder that good things come to those who wait.
π« COVER REVEAL π«
Weβre excited to share a first look at the cover for THE KIMCHI FRIDGE, written by Tina Cho and illustrated by Cindy Kang, forthcoming from Little Bee Books on October 6th!
