Tomorrow is AAPI Heritage Month, so this is your annual reminder that the continent of Asia includes South Asia and the Middle East! If your book roundups only include East Asian countries, then you're doing it wrong. Here's a map to help ⬇️

“I’m no good at drawing.”
I hear this a lot. About drawing, painting, writing poetry, taking pictures.
But “good” is subjective, and also misses the point.
Does drawing bring you joy? Does painting calm your mind? Does writing poetry leave you fulfilled?
THAT’s why you do it.

Today is World Read Aloud Day! I made this poster for the annual celebration of sharing books and the love of reading a few years ago. You can download it for free at the Art page of my website: jarrettlerner.com/art#WorldReadAloudDay#WRAD#WorldReadAloudDay2023 #WRAD2023
It’s #worldreadaloudday! @brimmerandmayschool kindergarten got to meet fabulous author @Anna.staniszewski and hear her new book, Beast in Show. It was so fun and we learned all about how Anna became an author. instagram.com/p/CoIv19fvh48/…
Every year, Native parents share photos of these "naming" projects they are asked to do.
Teachers: stop doing this. It trivializes something of tremendous significance to Native families and communities. It isn't cute. It isn't educational.
IT IS WRONG.
I got chills hearing @imaroxburygirl share the story of how she came to illustrate picture books. What a story! Looking forward to the day ahead at @jfklibrary.
We read the @Novel_Effect version of #CreepyCrayon by @areynoldsbooks and @itspeterbrown today. It was a homerun! The sound effects added a whole new creepy element. The kids and I all had such a fun time!
