Thank you, Carolyn! I’ve been leaning hard on the ‘favorites’ lately.

Yes! My first trade picture book was a dad book where he played and cared for the kids which I loved. It's a snow plow story, my dad was a truck driver - but no sick or sidelined mom. Play, work, and community.

Thank you!!!

Thank you, Carolyn. It’s a strange season of life! Sounds like a productive week for you, well done.

Thanks, Brian! Yes - we always need more dad picture books!

Phew. Thank you. I’m just nervous about the big switch - I was squeaking by until last week.

Not surprised about Zenni. How was the quality from WP? I don’t have a Costco nearby but someone else just recommended them too.

I didn’t know they had an optical department. Thanks!

Argh. I’m in a Costco-desert. But very good to know. Thank you!

That's wonderful, though. I certainly hope it's a less brutal pursuit than graphic novels!

Oh wow. Are you thinking of giving YA another try?
