If you ever have a chance to help bring authors to your kid's school, DO IT. If you ever have the chance to bring 11 of them at once, GET ON IT. If you ever have the chance to bring THESE 11? RUN! NOW! GO! Thanks to this #kidlit superstar crew + @ChildrensBW_LA!📚🙏🎉
The suspense is killing me. Will BLUE BISON get a haircut? One guarantee: the dynamic duo of @scottmrothman + @peteoswaldart will deliver the laughs!💈🦬✂️

Cue the heavenly choir. This event is one for the calendar! Can't wait for @NellBeckerman @ @ChildrensBW_LA on Sat 10/8 from 12-1pm!
We can't stop recommending @NellBeckerman's gorgeous books! "When the Sky Glows" shines a light on things sky-related while "Down Under the Pier" details ocean life and a beautiful day.
Nell will be @ CBW on Sat, Oct 8, 12-1 PM. For more information, see childrensbookworld.com/event…
ALT A faced-out copy of "When the Sky Glows" by Nell Cross Beckerman; illustrated by David Litchfield sits on top of six spined copies of the book on a wooden table. To the right is a copy of "Down Under the Pier," also by Nell Cross Beckerman; illustrated by Rachell Sumpter. A blurry picture book display is visible in the background.
You had me at "barf color tests." Sneak peek at an epic tale, marvelously realized by @gelakalaitzidis! 🐉📚
Behind the scenes. Sketches, barf color tests😛, and the final spread from my upcoming book OZZIE & PRINCE ZEBEDEE. @EastWestLit @tessameischeid @penguinkids @clairetatters #kidlit #kidlitart #picturebook
Brave and beautiful piece by @HimymCraig. Take a minute to read this one, folks.
I wrote about what it's felt like working in Hollywood as the parent of a child with a disability.
The Boston Globe was kind of enough to publish it.
Thanks, @BostonGlobe, @GlobeIdeas!
Just signed up for @SCBWISOCALLA Writers Day. Who's going? Also, got to write a thing a while back. Winning the contest last year was the icing on the cake of the event. (Like, the good kind. Perfectly/not-too-sweet, ixnay on the cream cheese-ay. Ugh. Now I need cake.) 🧁🎂📚
It's time to enter the SCBWI-L.A. Writers Day Contest! Read on to hear about our past winners' experience:

What a lovely review from @PublishersWkly! 🥕
"To tell the story of Ruth Krauss (1901–1993), an unconventional person who became a writer of unconventional picture books, the creators assemble playful phrases and vignettes in the spirit of their subject." publishersweekly.com/9781419…

I had an amazing time participating in the Westwood Charter Bedtime Story Jam event! I especially loved doing an I Am Poem with the kiddos and getting to be a part of their creativity! Plus! Look at all the author cool authors I got to hang with!
