MO Republicans want to defund our public libraries. House of Reps has already cut $4.5 million in State Aid. Next, the Senate will determine whether or not to restore this essential funding. Contact your MO State Senator TODAY. (Link in comments.) #FundMOLibraries #FreedomToRead
Basking in the genius and hilarity of the final #aslc22 panel with @BBAlston, @JulianThePoet, and Young Vo. 🤩
Folks lining up to meet @AdamGidwitz and @henakhanbooks at today’s #alsc22 book signing referred to it as “unicorning.” 🦄
Packed breakfast ballroom on Day 3 of #alsc22! 🍳☕️ Such an awesome presentation from @AdamGidwitz and @henakhanbooks! I wish I could begin everyday with such rich (and hilarious 🤣) conversation.
The staff of @wearealsc are absolute magic makers and miracle workers! So grateful for all their hard work to make #alsc22 possible!
The @RabbitHoleKC knows how to throw an amazing party! 🎉 Thank you for hosting #alsc22 attendees and bringing the wonder and awe of #kidlit come alive!
Thank you, @soontornvat, for your powerful, delightful keynote at #alsc22! Your opening session set the tone for an inspiring and inclusive conference! The world is a better place because your books are in the world. 📚🌎💕
