Waving hello to any Canadian Children's creatives out there... CANSCAIP (The Canadian Society of Children's Authors, Illustrators and Performers) @canscaip.bsky.social is a fab way to meet like minds, share information and learn tons. Let's grow Canadian talent by helping each other. See you there?

Indeed. BTW I'm DEVOURING Shadow Road. It's SO SO SO good! Review to follow soon

I so get that. Sadly, can't avoid it here. My neighbour has a life-sized (yes, you read that right - life size!) cutout of He-who-shall-not-be-named on her balcony.

Tuck Everlasting. Chocolate Wars. Staying Fat for Sarah Byrne. Just some of the titles I was introduced to by my fab MFA teacher, Glen User.

Yes please. SCBWI PAL member here 😊

An illustration of a woman in glasses looking up at a poster with a super cat surrounded by little admiring cats. Text on poster reads: "Our Favourite Picture Book, by John Writer" and "Our class has drawing his character!" The woman in glasses is labelled "Jane Illustrator, Feeling Miffed" and her thought bubble reads "But…John Writer didn't decide how this character would look…I did!" In the bottom right corner: #PicturesMeansBusiness, signed by artist Sarah McIntyre.

Gentle reminder to authors & publishers of illustrated books launching this week: Remember to credit/tag the ILLUSTRATOR, esp if you're using their art in promotional materials. See http://www.picturesmeanbusiness.com/ Illus: @sarahmcintyre.bsky.social #PicturesMeanBusiness #KidLit
