Captain America comic #1 with an edit to place a caricature of Ilhan Omar over Cap so she is punching Hitler instead of Cap. The comic masthead has also been changed to her name.
Quick iconic comic cover edit to laud Ilhan Omar.
Thank you 😊
Thankful to have a haiku featured in Mayfly again. I do love this little magazine. 💜 #haiku #poetry #mayfly

“When the government kills, it has an obligation to demonstrate that it has acted in the public interest," writes the Times editorial board. "Instead, the Trump administration is once again engaged in a perversion of justice."
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."
I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

This is old, but so cool! This is from the illustrator of Mayfly and she shows a bit of the process she uses to create the cover art. And my haiku is on issue 74! 😊 #haiku #poetry
Thanks, Teresa - I wish it wasn’t what I have to write about, though. 😕
Thank you!

Valerie collects clues about people’s faces, actions & words. Like puzzle pieces, they fit together, helping her make sense of the world. When the pieces get “jumbled”, Valerie is left to put them back together so she doesn’t feel quite so lost. #DVpit #PB #ND
IF YOU COULD SLEEP ANYWHERE…
would you sleep in a tree, on a rocky cliff, or in a cave? This lyrical bedtime book pairs animals & their unique sleeping places with human families across the world. Perhaps they are more alike than different! #DVpit #PB

In ROCK STAR, Diamond searches for rocks & fossils in her uncle’s creek. She can identify anything from gastropods to graptolites. But, when Diamond finds a piece that is museum quality, the suggestion of donating “her” treasure leads to some BIG feelings. #DVpit #PB #STEM
Penny’s unique prototypes (adaptable umbrellas, indestructible dog toys & more!) are promising. However, when Penny believes she needs to use an inventor’s kit to be successful at the school’s Invention Convention, she struggles to make the “perfect” prototype. #DVpit #PB #STEM
