Hi #authorillustrators #editors #artdirectors #kidlitart #kidlitcommunity @brianlarossa.com
When it comes to making dummy books, do you make a cover or do you keep it plain? Would love some advice! Thank you!

BOO! Since it’s the start of spooky season I’ve chosen this little illustration for my October #kidlitartpostcard 👻 🎃

Hi friends! It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here but I wanted to pop up for #kidlitartpostcard day. Here in the southern hemisphere we can sense summer is on its way and I am certainly looking forward to some warmer days.

Girl on the beach. The wind is blowing her hair and she is sat on the ground in a swimsuit with a shell held against her ear.

It has fun fold out sections including river facts too. I can’t wait to share it with the world 🌍 📕

I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed about my work on The Book Tree Podcast. Something like this is way out of my comfort zone but Corinne was a fabulous host and instantly put me at ease. Find it on Spotify or Apple Podcasts

Printed a few postcards of my art to go alongside my portfolio at the #scbwi winter conference this weekend. Anyone else going? #kidlit #kidlitart #illustration

Hi Brian. Would it be possible for you to add me to the list too? - I am trying to find my tribe!

Hi Greg! I'm also trying to get to grips with this platform. It seems nice so far but would love to make more genuine connections.

Welcome! I’m still figuring this place out and trying to make more genuine connections.

I asked a child what their fave book from last year was and their answer was a series that was published about a decade ago. A good reminder that a book is always new to a child who hasn't read it. The constant publishing hustle for novelty has nothing to do with what children want. #KidLitUK

What a juicy newsletter. I’ve just had a browse through but will be definitely going back to read it all properly. Happy 2025 🥰
