Great picture books from 60s-70s at today's library sale. Curious if anyone can identify them.
I happened to record the call I got from @GoGirlsGoBooks when she offered to acquire Farm Shark. It's an inside look at the publishing business and I'm sharing it here with her permission. youtu.be/3QK4PNjRWfQ
Got this in the mail today from Maddie Frost, the illustrator for the book Farm Shark. Why a hat? No idea, but I love it. (Just a goofy little promo, not an actual book illustration.)
The magnificent Rita Moreno, born 92 years ago today
It's not every day that the mail includes a giant piece of original art from @jerroldconnors! It's gorgeous and will soon be on my wall. Thanks Jerrold!
**I’m SO HAPPY with this book deal announcement!*** Thank you so much to @IvanTaurisano at @SourcebooksKids for believing in this series and to my AMAZING agent @jmcgowanbks for elevating my ideas and help bringing them to market! #kidlit #kidlitart #kidlitauthor
On one side of my garden: a productive Jalapeño plant, whose peppers have a 5,000 Scoville heat rating. On the other side, a plant with a single Red Ghost pepper, rated at 1,000,000 Scovilles, 400 times hotter than Tabasco sauce. The lone ghost sneers when I tiptoe past. 🌶🔥🚑
ICYMI over on 📷, here's the cover of me & @teresamtz's book coming in June '24 & available for preorder NOW! I'm so excited for you to read this food-filled rhyming read-aloud featuring curly fries, mac 'n cheese, waterfowl, teamwork, and tacos!
Breaking news: I am now represented by legendary James McGowan @jmcgowanbks @bookendslit! 🎉Everything I’ve been looking for in an agent and I can’t believe I get to partner with him going forward!
Nice eye roll in a 1955 picture book 🙄
Random observation that Bernard Waber LOVED illustrating retail locations in full color detail in his early 70s Lyle books.
@jerroldconnors Thanks, Jerrold! I'm forever in pursuit of @jerroldconnors donuts. Music is Hank Mobley's "When I Fall In Love (with a donut)" #DonutsForEverybody
Lovely review for WHAT IS HOPE? from @sljournal! Thank you @susan_marie for sending me the full text!

As a beekeeper, horror lover, & author, this was inevitable . . . Honored to team up w/ fellow @abla/@marchsoloway client, @kalyquarles & bring these undead bees to life in in this Colón/Quarles creature feature. *Sound on 🧵Some fun openings lines, images, and thanks below.

Mooooo! 🐮 Hear from author @audreyperrott as she discusses how her son inspired Moo Hoo, illustrated by Ross Burach, and what kids can learn about feelings from this new picture book. bit.ly/3VYQuB2
What an amazing review! "When I think of what makes picture books so rewarding and thrilling to look at, I think of books like Touch the Sky. This evocative title vividly captures a childhood milestone ... one of the very best picture books of the year..." mrbrianspicturebookpicks.wordpress.com/2024/03/27/tou…
It’s pub day for The Wild Ones! @MeganLacera and I poured our hearts into this book and we’re excited to get into the hands of readers around the world. This book is a reflection of our values: believe in yourself, believe in your community, and believe in where you’re from!

@billcanterbury @GoGirlsGoBooks 😂 😂 The pitch just needs a little twerk...err tweak...and it'll be ready for prime time!
Sent my MG prose/verse novel to my editor at 2am last night! It's been 5 mo. since I knew it was going to be a book. 5 mo. of weaving the historical story in with a new contemporary story, mixing old cast with new cast. Making threads resonate. 1st nap, then back to PBs. #kidlit
Folks, I love my book LONG ROAD TO THE CIRCUS very much, but it's one thing to have folks like your book too and a very different thing for an ENTIRE TOWN to base a three-day festival on it. Oh. My. God. sturgisjournal.com/story/news/edu…
@billcanterbury @GoGirlsGoBooks Crying. I'll publish the cake book! I am so tired.
@billcanterbury @GoGirlsGoBooks Oh my goodness, that made me laugh so hard. Congratulations to you both!
From behind the opaque publishing curtain, the birth of a book😂:
I happened to record the call I got from @GoGirlsGoBooks when she offered to acquire Farm Shark. It's an inside look at the publishing business and I'm sharing it here with her permission. youtu.be/3QK4PNjRWfQ
