Small Business Saturday

Had a great time at @volumesbooks today, celebrating Small Business Saturday!

Still on The New York Times List!

SO incredibly honored to have "Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site" featured on this list 🎉📚, especially as the book approaches it's 10th anniversary. ❤️

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving, from our home to yours. 🦃 🍁 Wishing you a blessed holiday season.

Happy Birthday!

My oldest baby is 19 today. How did this happen?! 🤷🏻‍♀️#dontblink #timeflies

Great Recommendation

Nadalynn Rose recommends “Three Cheers For Kid McGear!” What more would you need to know? 🤷🏻‍♀️🤗❤️

Perfect kids’ gifts! 🎁 If you happen to be in or near Whitefish, Montana, drop by Sprouts Children’s Boutique 🌱 to purchase... and please tell them I sent you.

Sweet Photo

Thank you to supermom Kristin for this sweet, sweet photo. ❤️❤️❤️

Each Tiny Spark

Middle Grade Literature fans... READ THIS. It’s so well done and so important on so many fronts. 📚❤️ Thank you, @phcartaya for a lovely read.

Math?

Sent to me by my 14yo kid. 🤗 This sort of sums up (Ha! No pun!) my own memories of high school math.

Bay Area Children's Theater

I had the most amazing (and surreal!) time watching my book-turned-children’s-theater-musical and signing for the fans! Thank you, @bactheatre for the privilege and honor. You did a beautiful job! 🚧 🏗 ❤️

We Made the Today Shows List!

We made the Today Show’s list!!! (Not sure about Kid McGear being for one-year-olds, necessarily, but, hey — I’m taking it!!! 🙋🏻‍♀️) So many wonderful books on this list. #honored #blessed

Yikes!

NOT a mouse 🐁, it’s just a dried leaf — so you’ll feel pretty stupid if you scream. 😲 Just, you know, in case you would do that. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thanks!

Thank you, Amazon editors, for including Kid McGear on this list! 🥰 🚧 It’s an honor to have my title sit alongside so many wonderful books (many of whom have been written/illustrated by my friends! 😊). ❤️ #honored #blessed

Yummy

Baking this morning, at my 14yo’s request: lattice apple coffee cake. 🍎🍁👩🏻‍🍳 A good way to start a cold, snowy day.

Biggest Little Fans!

Some of my biggest little fans in Austin, Texas, enjoying their new board books! 🥰📚 Thanks, Denna, for sending this sweet photo!

Skid Steer

For everyone that has asked me, “What the heck would YOU do with a skid steer?!” — Well, here you go: Christmas shopping! 😉😂

Fun

Thank you, Duluth Trading Company. 😘❤️ PS: I spent $80 on a pair of gardening overalls from your catalog last spring. I LOVE (!) the overalls, but I cringed a little at the price. Now, I might just be needing another pair! 😉🤗 👩🏻‍🌾
