Hello #kidlitartpostcard!

I’m Mazie, an illustrator/cartoonist/writer from Canada. I like writing stories about magic, but I’m also looking to illustrate stories besides my own, from picture books to middle grade! I have experience in comics, but want to branch out to all kidlit!

Can’t find it on Libby, but I’m starting my library request list and you are at the top 😉

Hey #kidlit bluesky! A friend recently pointed out how her book’s Amazon ranking is affected by reviews. If you have a picture book that needs a boost let me know! If it’s on our Libby, me and the boy can read it right away, otherwise we can make a request through the library. #picturebooks #booksky

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

We just finished How to Eat Fried Worms by Thomas Rockwall. I read it as a kid, but rereading now I can definitely identify with the parents. My legit response to my kid eating worms would probably be, at least cook ‘em fancy. #booksky #readingwithkids #kidlit

A coloring page of a stack of books featuring some of the names people call voracious readers around the world. There is a library mouse reading on top of the stack, a bookworm tucked into a nook, and a book bug listening to an audiobook underneath a leaning book. The artwork is by Jessica Blank and the coloring page is being offered for free on gumroad.

While I was drawing this the boy made a request that I turn the art into a coloring page. We thought it might be fun to spread some reading love so I’m offering it up as a free download on gumroad 7008109455774.gumroad.com/l/nbpfcd

Thank you!!! Yes my little goofball got her own book. 🌈 I’ve got all my fingers and toes crossed over here while simultaneously trying not to think about it 😆

A #kidlitartpostcard featuring a very dog-like red dragon in the sky chasing his own tail. His tongue is hanging out and he's wearing a dog coloring. Below him, is a backyard fence and an angry speech bubble with the words "Down, Boy!" In the corner is the author/illustrator info: Brooke Baum, Author & Illustrator, heybrookebaum.com

Woohoo, it's #kidlitartpostcard day! I love to create fun, silly, kid-focused art. I'm a #PBRisingStars mentee and I'll query agents in the fall! This goofy dragon is from a new dummy I'm working on!

Illustration depicting a summer-y scene, showing a garden surrounded by other flats and houses. Growing from the middle of the garden is an apple tree which branches connect all neighbours who can be seen through the windows. Everyone is happy - people are waving at each other and sharing drinks and flowers.

We had a flying squirrel who used to glide from the upstairs banister to your shoulder in the downstairs den!

Good morning, #kidlitartpostcard day! I’m always excited for the little art gallery that pops up today. It’s such a joy to be part of it.

This month, I’m sharing a spread from Luna’s Rainbow, which is officially OUT ON SUBMISSION!

I’m so happy this story is out in the world and in editors’ hands.

Neighborhood cat decided our front door was THE PLACE to give birth and now this is the current situation in my bathroom. 🥰

Yes! We love using Merlin to see who is hanging around ❤️

We went to see the Audubon exhibit at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. The boy and I also read the graphic novel: Audubon, on the Wings of the World before we went. So now when we are out and spot a new bird S. gets out his finger guns and goes “Pew pew! I’m Audubon!” #birdsky #booksky
