📦Unboxing my newest picture book GRAY SQUIRREL LOSES IT with my kiddo! There were some bumps along the way, like the cat food dispenser sounding off, but we pressed on and now I’m inclined to make this a tradition. What do you think—should we keep unboxing together?

Of Maggie Ram and her cat with a quote from her about story spinners stating the story was constantly Loved it when I taught kids comics their stories are very similar to this. This book has charm and underwater, spiders, and princesses who don’t need saving. Kids will be able to see themselves in Kennedy and Devon and will root for them to exceed at the end. A fun and lovely book!

For my fellow moms who also took Tylenol, do NOT feel guilty for even a second. The link to autism is NOT a thing and you’ve likely got enough on your plate without government guilt trips. Listen to this if you want the science. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

A lovely review for GRAY SQUIRREL LOSES IT! from SLJ!

#picturebook #edusky #informativefiction #kidlit
School library journal review written in red reading illustrations are clear and pleasant and fun side jokes are found throughout the pages. And exciting and humorous opportunity to open discussions about the concepts of seeds turning into plants, the food, and for life, or just to read for fun. A gray squirrel points to the review. Green grass and trees surround the text

Grace world points to the book review which reads “the interactions between the steadily, calm narrator and a manic squirrel create a droll, witty bit of humor that gives a clever wink and nod to Young viewers… Fans of Watts scaredy squirrel will likely delight in the adventures of yet another goofy lovable rodent“ An image of a squirrel pointing to the cover of the book gray squirrel loses it coming out October 21
