Excited for #EarthDay story time at the library today! 🌏
I'm reading two favorites about managing food waste:
FRIDGE-OPOLIS by @coffeycreative.bsky.social, illustrated by @joshcleland.bsky.social, and COMPOST STEW by Mary McKenna Siddals, illustrated by Ashley Wolff. 📚👍 #kidlit

cover of FRIDGE-OPOLIS shows the inside of a refrigerator with anthropomorphized foods; cover of COMPOST STEW shows a girl wearing a straw hat, a dog, and a duck around a black barrel with plants in the background

I’ve been to the summer conference in LA but never NY. So excited!

Melissa Coffey @coffeycreative.bsky.social · Jan 15

I attended the LA summer conference five years ago, but it’s my first winter one in NY—yay. Hope our paths cross, Cait!
