anyone who has not watched The Last Mimzy (2007)... honestly, I dont know who directly to send to this film, but it is particularly prescient right now. It is a family film and many will think its for children... its for humans

In a world where many adults don't know when/how 2 intervene when others are experiencing harm, FAERIE DREAMERIE LAND gives an "in" to that conversation w/children in a whimsical & magickal way that honors that we can't know light w/o shadows. #DVPIT #F #NIV #LGBT #ND #WOC #KIDLIT #BIPOC #PB-#CB

In the liminal space between picture book & chapter book, FAERIE DREAMERIE LAND shows a young girl discovering her own light while helping someone else find their’s. Literacy is in such a fundamental decline. This type of book is more important than ever. #DVPIT #F #NIV #LGBT #ND #WOC #KIDLIT #BVM

In FAEFYRE, a group of powerful Fae live hidden among humans. They were lost, alone, & dangerous until "The Mamas" gathered, trained, &saved them during a war w/Clans that want them dead,bound or enslaved. The fragile balance is falling apart after 1 of them disappears. #DVPIT #F #GN #A #BVM #LGBT

FAERIE DREAMERIE LAND, #kidlit #F #NIV Phoenix doesn’t believe how special she is until she travels to FDL. It *is* magickal, but not always perfect there either. She helps a tiny fairy who is being bullied by encouraging her to shine her light & finds her own in the process. #PB/#CB. #DVPIT #Black

Anyone who loves fantasy, Queerness, irreverence, and magick who hasn't watched "Half Bad" fka The Bastard Son and the Devil Himself should just stop now and watch. I hv watched b4, but somehow it is even more satisfying in this rewatch. On @netflix
