YAY! 🎉! It’s a #BookBirthday for our #EarlyReader: MONSTER OG #3: ⭐️🎈OG RESCUES BOP!🎈⭐️ 📝 by me, 🎨 by @eliopictures.bsky.social, @SimonKIDS.bsky.social! Og (& his BIG 🐈, Mog) babysit Og’s little sister, Bop, but— Bop runs off. Grabs a 🎈. & FLOATS AWAY! 😅☁️! Hope YOUR littles ❤️ it! #kidlit #STEAM

The colorful cartoon cover of MONSTER OG #3: OG RESCUES BOP! Cute green toddler monster, Bop, holds a balloon and sails away over her big brother, the kind Monster Og—who was SUPPOSED to be babysitting her! OOPS! Can Og (along with his BIG cat, Mog) think, make a plan, and rescue Bop? With a little #STEAM and a lot of heart, this rhyming family-oriented early reader is PERFECT for littles learning to read themselves. (And MORE fun with MONSTER OG is coming later this year from me, illustrator Elio, and the team at Simon Spotlight, Simon & Schuster!) Buy or borrow OG RESCUES BOP! wherever you love to get books! Thank you!

Weather unfollowed is a danger to all Americans. NOAA faces proposed budget reductions of about $2 billion, and one proposal would eliminate NOAA's Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research entirely, shutting down all research laboratories across the country.
