Hello Kidlit Editors and Art Directors! I am an author and illustrator of children’s books. I love to draw kids, families, everyday life chaos, action and emotion. I would love to illustrate a beach-day or pool- day picture book. #KidlitArtPostcard #Illustration #KidlitMegaFeed #picturebooks

I finished The Canyons Of Rob Gotobed's Overactive Mind. I smiled, I laughed louder than I probably should have (startled the cat), I nodded, I think I snorted a few times.

Probably the funniest comedian you’ve never even heard of! But the chances are that you’ve already laughed at one of his jokes, as he has written for many of the top comedy shows in Britain and the USA. IMDb: bit.ly/4eE9yxz Amazon: bit.ly/4hA0B7W

STRONG CHOICE! Review from the SLJ. A Light For Lucinda is a gentle PB that echoes resilience, comfort and love during political conflict in Cuba. Showcases the actions families and communities take to endure difficult times. @charlesbridge.bsky.social #schoolLibrarians #EduSky #Kidlit #SELbooks

Lord alive, they want fictional characters in fictional sexual situations to model consent for literal adults like a patronizing early 2020’s sitcom where the point of the writing is to convey that the writer’s been to therapy at some point

For the final prompt of #summerfolio I chose to do a book cover, would you like to read Merlin’s memoirs?😆 I’m very happy that I could go through all the prompts🎉 the challenge was fun and useful and it was great to draw my cats again, thanks @olgaherrera.bsky.social 💕 #kidlitart #bookcover #cats

Illustration for a book cover. The title says: Memoirs of a (brave) cat. The word brave has been added with some tape. There is a cat in the front wearing a cape, behind him 3 other cats are hiding in some bushes, one of them is waving a stick with a fake spider hanging from it.

And the final prompt! “It was difficult to be brave in this situation.” I wanted to add a small comic here in watercolor. I’ve been working on graphic novel work so I need more samples in my portfolio. This was fun @olgaherrera.bsky.social #summerfolio #kidlitart #kidlitcomic

Here’s our take on the next prompt of #summerfolio 🛒 by @olgaherrera.bsky.social I’ve been wanting to do something like this for a long time, this challenge gave me the motivation to finally have a go at it! And I’ve managed to fit all of our beloved pets too💕 #kidlit #kidlitart #shopping

An illustration of a supermarket, fruit and vegetables aisle, with lots of cats and dogs doing their shopping and playing around. Text: grocery shopping was grandpa Neo’s favourite adventure… …but he didn’t expect it to be so busy.

The prompt this week “Grocery shopping was 9@66i3’s favorite adventure” for #summerfolio and I’m actually kind of exhausted by it. 😂 I think it needs another round in the critique group. I also kind of like it. @olgaherrera.bsky.social #robot #kidlitart #summerfolio2025
