When Oliver opened his lunch he was surprised to find his lost pack of gummy worms from Halloween in his sandwich with some friends..... who must've been hungry too. Needless to say Oliver lost his appetite…🪱🥪 #kidlitart

Happy #kidlitartpostcard and #peachtober I really had a fun time figuring out what to do for the prompt Oak. Through research I found out about Dendrologists they are scientists who study and classify trees. Rep'd by @brightagencypublishing www.amandamorrowart.com

Hey #KidLitArtPostcard! Almost time for Back-to-School, good luck to all kids, parents, teachers and librarians 💪🤗 I'm Cat, and you can see my work at catarinaoliveirastudio.com 🎨 Looking for MG/YA cover work ⭐ Rep'd by Nicole Tugeau at T2 #kidlitart #kidlit #classroom #backtoschool

Two kids are sitting at their desks in the classroom, the boy is secretly handing a folded piece of paper and looking coy, while the girl is looking at the note in an uninterested, bored, I'm too cool for this, way. The background shows a blackboard on the wall and three other kids unaware of what is happening.

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! This is a little piece of personal art, commemorating my grandma, who loved making quilts. This is how I feel every time I wrap up in one of them. Portfolio kirstenmcgonigal.com rep’d by: @beccalangton.bsky.social of @da-childrens.bsky.social #kidlitart #kidlit

Children’s book illustration showing a little girl wrapped up in a purple and gold quilt, surrounded by a dark blue and purple background. A friendly ghost grandma, with faint hearts swirling inside of and behind her, is wrapping her arms lovingly around the girl. The girl has a bittersweet expression on her face, like she is missing her grandma, but the quilt is helping her feel a little better because it is a reminder of her grandma’s love.

Mockup book cover with the title "The Treasure of Itzel". It shows two kids facing the reader in a forest setting. The kid in the front, with an "Indiana Jones" hat, is climbing over some stone columns covered in moss and looks super excited. While the kid in the back has a baseball cap and glasses, they are looking more cautious. The stones have carved signs and symbols, including a skull.

Hi #kidlitartpostcard 👋 I offer you this painting and the phrase playing through my mind as I was painting it was “When at first you don’t succeed, try, try, again” and honestly I needed that reminder as I learn this new medium. So yes, this painting is a little symbolic of how I was feeling.
