A big THANK YOU to Danna Smith for including Bless the Earth in her most recent post about “Poetry in Picture Books.” You may read more about her listing here!

Well, that was pretty darn exciting! To be invited to join The Bible for Kids podcast w/ the amazing Mike Nawrocki & Sarah Humphrey was the height of fun. For a listen, head in this direction!

A wee bit behind in my #KidLitFirstLines updates, but I loved including my friend, Cynthia Levinson’s powerful story of the painter, Ben Shahn.

We can’t keep enough of Nancy Tillman‘s On the Night You Were Born on the shelves at The Blue Bunny, Books and Toys. It’s a natural guest here for my #kidlitfirstlines this Friday. Great as board books, too. Have you read it yet?

This is seriously one of the most gorgeous reviews I’ve ever received. Obviously, Jama Rattigan is an amazing writer herself, as evidenced by insights such as: “Like lovingly strung prayer beads, these poetic gems sing true. There is a hopeful message here, along with incentive to explore one’s faith.” Thank you, Jama! (To read the review click here!)

A big THANK YOU to Imagination Soup including One Perfect Plan on its October 2023 listing. Find lots of great reads here!
