📦Unboxing my newest picture book GRAY SQUIRREL LOSES IT with my kiddo! There were some bumps along the way, like the cat food dispenser sounding off, but we pressed on and now I’m inclined to make this a tradition. What do you think—should we keep unboxing together?

Haha thank you! I will pass your compliments on to him 😉

Also read Story Spinners, it was one of my favorite reads of this year!

Ahh! Thank you! 😊 (PS I was dying over your GOT rewatch. The ARGYLE PANTS!)

Of Maggie Ram and her cat with a quote from her about story spinners stating the story was constantly Loved it when I taught kids comics their stories are very similar to this. This book has charm and underwater, spiders, and princesses who don’t need saving. Kids will be able to see themselves in Kennedy and Devon and will root for them to exceed at the end. A fun and lovely book!

High praise for STORY SPINNERS from the uber-talented Meggie Ramm, creator of the BATCAT series of graphic novels! Thanks @meggietheramm.bsky.social!

Be sure to preorder book 4, BATCAT: SEEING STARS, which comes out in April 2026!

Does Tylenol Cause Autism? Podcast Episode · Science Vs · 09/18/2025 · 28m

For my fellow moms who also took Tylenol, do NOT feel guilty for even a second. The link to autism is NOT a thing and you’ve likely got enough on your plate without government guilt trips. Listen to this if you want the science. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

Very fun reel about STORY SPINNERS from @middlegrademama! 😆

School library journal review written in red reading illustrations are clear and pleasant and fun side jokes are found throughout the pages. And exciting and humorous opportunity to open discussions about the concepts of seeds turning into plants, the food, and for life, or just to read for fun. A gray squirrel points to the review. Green grass and trees surround the text

A lovely review for GRAY SQUIRREL LOSES IT! from SLJ!

A photo showing the cover of Aquaman with amenity dress like Aquaman and it says it’s an editor’s pic on Amazon

A photo with the cover-up story spinners two girls one on the other shoulders. It highlights that the book story spinner is an editors pick on Amazon.

🔱Aquamanatee is an Amazon Editor’s pick! This is the second book of the year for me that Amazon has highlighted and I’m so grateful! The first, Story Spinners, is a best book of 2025 as well! More eyes on our books means more kids reading and nothing makes me happier!
