There's a great recent blog post by a librarian abt how kids are craving fun, lighter reads these days. So, on #NationalSlimeDay, here's your reminder: fun, joyful (& gooey 💚) books do exist! But even more special? Ones that still center diverse kids w meaningful layers of family, culture & home. 🥰

Thank you for being there! ❤️ (Feels like so long ago now! Gah! 😂) A wonderful pb pairing (along with Randy's incredible YA) would be this this one by Faith Kazmi & illustrated by @eychristine.bsky.social:

I like this one... but mainly bc I love the illustration and how kinda random the brand name sounds 😅

I was reading reviews for these big buttons that you can train dogs to press (“water” “food” “walk” etc.) and this one cracked me up 😹

Hello Bluesky! (Happy to be here!) I write #MG books and my latest, ISABEL IN BLOOM, is a novel-in-verse praised by the NYT as a "sweet and heartfelt novel [that] explores how bumpy beginnings can offer chances for new growth." My author brand is a blend of tender, joyful, and Filipino-Dad jokes 🥰🇵🇭

First post! To celebrate joining a new platform—in true social media style—here's a beautiful California fall beach scene... rather than just enjoying the moment. 😅🥲 #firstblueskypost
