Thank you Stefan!
Absolutely wonderful and true as well! Love this!
Thank you!
Had lots of fun coming up with a #50preciouswords entry! For some reason, bugs were calling to me! Good luck everyone and so excited to read through all the amazing entries!

I know most of us are dreaming of warmer weather at this point, but I'd love to see PB submissions with ✨cozy little moments.✨ Think Eliza Wheeler's A COZY WINTER DAY, Devil Elle Kurtz's THE BAKERY DRAGON, and Steve McCarthy's THE WILDERNESS.

Happy holidays everyone! Two new blog posts have launched on #kidlitcraze - one about Looking Back & Stepping Forward (with resources to help with both!) and one that includes my Mighty KidLit Community Holiday entry about a certain cheeky elf! 😂

Demystifying one of the biggest questions I had when I first entered the KidLit publishing community!

Thank you Kim!! Your grasp of rhyme and rhythm is fantastic - I will keep working to get to your level one day! 🤞
Ever been tempted to write a rhyming #PB? I am in the long process of perfecting one! I have shared what I have learnt along the way and my favourite resources in my latest #kidlitcraze post!

I am so excited for this book by @briangehrlein.bsky.social! It perfectly mirrors the descent into chaos that my evenings used to (and still often do) take! 🤣😴
(We have to wait a little longer here in the UK - it hits shelves Dec 4th!)

This is a fascinating real-life look at what kids gravitate towards! I love that humour is top of the list! I wonder what might change if non-fiction were an option? I know my youngest loves NF above all else! Thank you Chrissie for sharing!
