It's a busy ice cream shop where animals love to hang out on sunny days. A bear and a pig are serving ice cream to a fox mother and her baby, while a little badger with a tiny backpack checks out at the register with a sheep clerk. Nearby, a grandpa monkey is enjoying his ice cream when he notices his grandkids trying to sneak a taste. Outside, a rabbit and a little dog are peering through the window, wishing they could have a scoop of their own.

#KidLitArtPostcard is turning 5! Love this month’s theme: You, as a kid. When I was little, I adored pig soft toys. The problem was, they were surprisingly hard to find. Toy shops were full of teddy bears and dolls. Eventually, I was given my first own piggy, and it stayed with me for many years!

I'd love to credit whoever wrote this. No idea. But I'm 100% with its message. When I think of how the '80s ethos, "Greed is Good" has metastasized, it surprises and depresses me. Imagine having so many millions, hundred of millions, even billions & caring about nothing except your own vanity.

A girl is trying to walk two fluffy samoyeds but has gotten entirely tangled up in the leashes of the two dogs who are happily running circles around her.
The title reads "Zoey Crocker, Pet Walker" by Maureen Keene.

Two kids explore a hallway in a dark mansion. They look worried, and the boy holds a flashlight. The hallway is lined with paintings in ornate frames, all of the eyes of the paintings watching the kids. We can see the shadow of some sort of horned monster coming up the stairs.
The title reads "The Mystery of Mystic Manor" by Jo Barnett.

Sherrif Saguaro, an old-timey western sheriff who also happens to be a walking cactus. He's wearing a dusty leather coat and boots with spurs and a red bandana, and while he wears no hat, his cactus head is the shape of a 10-gallon hat. He's dashing through a dusty old western frontier town about to throw a lasso. In the background is his trusty horse, who also happens to be a cactus.

A panicked apprentice witch (she's human, with pink hair, glasses, and light academia clothing) makes a mess of her cauldron while being calmy advised by an older, wiser witch (who is a bear.) Aside from the exploding cauldron, the browns of the scene make it warm and cozy.
The cover reads "DeepWoods Academy for the Magically Inept" by Jo Barnett, book 1: Trouble Brewing
