Our member Dionna Mann is delighted to share that her upccoming #MG debut novel, MAMA'S CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS has been chosen as a Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection! #JLGSelection WOOT!

The culture of book banning hurts authors readers bookstores and communities. Just the fear someone would get mad about a brown woman writing children’s fantasy with environmental themes resulted in last minute tour cancellations. Our kids deserve the freedom to read 💔

So many incredible auction items available in the #KidLit4Ceasefire Fundraiser. bit.ly/KidLit4Ceasefi…

Funds from this auction will help children and their families in Gaza, Sudan, and Congo. A portion of the auction will also go toward the Little Miss Flint water fundraiser.

My friend Kate Ramsey is working to help a family she is connected with get out of Gaza. Can you chip in? Donations, shares, all are appreciated. 💜
