Guess who's leaving Twitter? I heard you all were nicer. I'm looking to engage with the kidlit community and writers in general. Also love pet pictures and cute animal videos. I'm the author of two NF MG books THERE'S NO HAM IN HAMBURGERS and THERE'S NO CREAM IN CREAM SODA.

@msyingling.bsky.social is right! Cold days are a great time to curl up with a foodie book. Make hot chocolate like the Aztecs. #funfoodfacts #mgbooks #mgnonfiction
#OOTD #LibraryFashion Lots of layers, as it's 6 degrees out. Always a good day for cozy cooking adventures, or @kimzachman.bsky.social THERE'S NO HAM IN HAMBURGER. (Backwards because someone needed tech help!) @debbimichiko.bsky.social

My daughter brought her cat with her for the holiday break. We were worried that our dog wouldn't like him. 😅#catsofbluesky #dogsofbluesky

It's leaf season and 5 stars to this wonderful leaf collecting tool! Inexpensive. Runs on 100% renewable energy, and no ear protection needed. So quiet, you can hear the leaves falling into the area you just cleared. #fallworkout.

Excellent post from professional librarian about growing the love of reading in children.
In my burst of productivity I wrote about why reading graphic novels and listening to audio books IS “real” reading and helps grow lifelong readers. With sources cited, because, after all, I am a librarian. www.marykuehner.com/post/reading...
Reading is reading is reading is good!
Occasionally I'll encounter someone who thinks that reading graphic novels, magazines, series fiction, comics, books below your reading level, or listening to audio books doesn't count as "REAL" readi...

If @mstewartscience.bsky.social posts something, you should pay attention. She is the epitome of #kidslovenonfiction
So glad I stumbled upon this new resource! Excuse me while I add these ideas to my plan to boost nonfiction circulation in our school library.
I'm excited to share this new library of resources for teaching nonfiction reading and writing.

Another recent read, THE LEGEND OF THE LOST PEARLS by @sherryellisauthor.bsky.social perfect for young readers that like The Magic Treetops series but ready for even more action. #mglit #kidslit

Just finished reading #THEWILDROBOT by #peterbrown in anticipation of seeing the movie. I can see why it's been so popular with young readers and I'm sure the movie will be great.
