Author friends! Would you please tell me about your books coming in 2025 & early 2026? Educators are already starting to plan panels for next year's NCTE conference & I like to offer suggestions for panels on various topics when I'm asked. (Sharing my own 2025 book covers here for post visibility)

TROUBLE WITH HEROES book cover shows a boy on a mountaintop with a Bernese mountain dog looking up at him

HISTORY SMASHERS EARTH DAY AND THE ENVIRONMENT book cover shows a penguin on an iceberg and a diver scrubbing spilled oil off a dolphin, whose speech bubble says "There's a lot more to this story."

Accepting my depression as a chronic illness has been really helpful when the sads come, but it’s still so hard to not spiral into self loathing when I get triggered by dumb things. I want to write a novel about overcoming that feeling but I probably need to figure out how first.

Do You Even Know Me? is one of those picture books that has stuck with me the most of all the titles I read this year. If you haven't seen it yet, you need to check it out! 📚👍🏻 #ClassroomBookADay

Kidlit friends: how do you decide your story needs to exist in a published format? I’m trying to move out of my writing paralysis but I’m struggling with the why. I can write a good silly story, but so can so many other people.

I was followed by 6 new people today and so I googled myself to make sure I hadn’t done anything of note lately. I haven’t. 😅

I started reading (audiobook) SIMON SORT OF SAYS by @erinbowbooks.bsky.social and it has been a long time since I enjoyed a kid book because of brain chemistry reasons but it’s already SO GOOD. It seems the world knows this because it’s a Newberry winner but in case you didn’t. Obsessed.

📚👍 You may never look at the ducks in the park the same way again....Just don't feed them....that's a real warning! This book is sure to be a hit with the read aloud crowd! Even my 20-yr-old son got a kick out of it, LOL #kidlit #horror #picturebooks
