Thanks so much, Rachel!

Amazed to hear that WINTER BEES is included in Kirkus Reviews’ Best Books of the Century, along with so many illustrious authors & illustrators . . . feeling humbled.

Cover reveal for my fall book, DEAR ACORN (LOVE OAK). Working with @MelissaSweetIllustrator is a dream come true. And @JuniorLibraryGuild has already chosen it as a Gold Standard Selection.

What is it like to be little? What is it like to be big? —Coming Sept. 3.

First green in the woods: Lichen Green

Love your voice in this one, Loree! And I’ll never forget the image of those caterpillars going round and round the flowerpot!

Just finished this delightful book by @loreegriffinburns.bsky.social which amazingly 1) tells a spellbinding story about marching caterpillars, 2) explains how scientists concoct experiments, and 3) invites young readers to ask wacky questions and try to answer them.
