Bullies come in all shapes and sizes, and you’d be surprised by just who is bullying whom in this warm and wacky tale of comeuppance and repentance — and the unexpected benefits of reading. Plus, @jaredchapman’s illustrations are so fintastically fun! How could we resist? 🐟 🐠 🦈 . #codzilla #davidzeltser #jaredchapman #picturebook #toppicturebooksof2019 #kidlitart #kidlit #picturethisbook

Infused with kinetic energy and oozing fun on every spread, the light-hearted text and warm, lively illustrations of a diverse cast of kids and grownups unselfconsciously dancing in their own creative styles, in various settings, make it clear that this is a #picturebook on a mission: to get you up on your feet and moving to your favourite music! (It worked, too, since we’ve been having impromptu bedroom pajama disco dance parties!) 💃 Don’t miss this infectiously joyful #picturebook celebration of dance and self-expression, written and illustrated by @thyraheder. 💃 #howdoyoudance #thyraheder #picturebooks #kidlit #kidscandance #anyonecandance #bedroomdanceparty #toppicturebooksof2019 #picturethisbook

How appropriate to have stumbled upon this book at one of our fabulous public libraries. I’m usually wary of short story collections since they tend to be uneven, but sometimes you just have to trust your book gut. Then again with that title and cover, I couldn’t NOT take it home with me. [Spoiler: I wasn’t disappointed.] 📚 Punctuated with the reflections of the author and her friends on the value of libraries and what they mean to them personally, the stories themselves are more obliquely linked than the cover suggests — in fact there isn’t actually a story titled “Public Library” in the collection. Instead, the inventive and delightful stories manage to collectively weave a complexly layered and moving ode to words, stories and books, poets and storytellers, as well as memories, serendipitous connections and the shared human experience — pretty much everything public libraries offer freely, and a reminder of what we’d be missing without them. Brilliant! 📚 I can’t believe it took me so long to discover Ali Smith, but I’m so excited to read more by this transcendently gifted author. Have you read any of her books? 📚 #publiclibraryandotherstories #alismith #goodreads #bookstagram #librarylove #librariesofinstagram #thisismylibrary #ptbooksiread2019 #picturethisbook

Some #picturebooks have a transportive effect, and one can’t help but be vicariously immersed in the idyllic acrylic and oil paintings in Hum and Swish, where a young girl, Jamie, is spending some quiet time alone, in harmony with the sand and lapping waves, and freely creating with materials she finds on the beach. . Thus, when Jamie’s serenity is interrupted by numerous well-meaning but obliviously intrusive observers, the reader, too, feels her frustration acutely. . This impressive authorial debut by @myerspaints is not only an empathetic reminder to respect someone else’s physical and mental space, but also a balm for like-minded quiet, creative souls — and one of our picks for the #toppicturebooksof2019. (And yes, we were inspired to brave the scorching sun and have a beach day like Jamie’s! 🏖)💙 . #humandswish #mattmyers #kidlitart #kidlit #kidsbookstagram #bookstagram #toppicturebooksof2019 #picturethisbook

Did you know that November is officially #picturebookmonth?! To celebrate we’ll be highlighting some of the most outstanding picturebooks published in 2019 (starting with our previous post), so keep your eyes peeled! . We’re also thrilled to support the #Kickstarter campaign recently launched by @storyandpicturesbyfilm to raise funds to continue the production of a film directed by Emmy-nominated filmmaker Joanna Rudnick, and produced in association with Kartemquin Films that aims to explore the power and reach of children’s #picturebooks through the lens of three contemporary authors/illustrators: Mac Barnett, Christian Robinson, and Yuyi Morales. (Click on Stories to get a sneak peek of the film-in-progress!) 🎥 The campaign runs from now till 23 November and is currently more than 50% funded. If successful, the funds will go specifically to support the documenting of @yuyimorales’s next book about wildlife living along the U.S./Mexico border whose lives are endangered by the creation of the border wall, as well as a trip around the country to film @macbarnett having conversations with some of the groundbreaking author-illustrators who championed experimentation in the art form in the mid-20th century. 🎥 Check out @storyandpicturesbyfilm to find out more and join us in supporting this worthy endeavour spearheaded by a team of talented and passionate picturebook lovers! p.s. If you’re not based in the US, don’t fret! Making a minimum donation of USD25 will guarantee that you’ll get a weblink to stream the film when it is completed! 🎉 #storyandpicturesbyfilm #picturebooks #kidlit #childrensbooks
