THE POWER OF THE BOOKS THEY LOVE ❤️ Yesterday, I was looking at our sons' library and realised that there is probably only 5-10% of books they LOVE. The other 90-95% of books they read are just books they find/have found OK or somewhat interesting. But the reason they read them is because they could read fluently enough that they didn't mind. If they were not fluent, they probably wouldn't have read them. It's the 5-10% of books they loved that helped them become fluent readers. They loved them so much that they didn't mind putting the effort they did to access the story when decoding was still demanding significant effort. This was the practice they needed to become fluent. So if your children are still at the beginning of their multi-literacy journey, do spend the time finding those books they will LOVE reading 😍 ❓️Does your child have a book(s) they LOVE in their home language? #lovetoread #bookworm #readingforpleasure #kidlit

Bren MacDibble is brilliant at world building. When I read her books, I feel utterly immersed. ‘The Apprentice Witnesser’ – which is out today – is set in a dystopian, climate-change and pandemic-affected world. Twelve-year-old orphan, Basti Scull lives in a small village after cities and most modern technology have been wiped out.      It’s dystopian but not a world without optimism. I finished this book feeling warmed by twelve-year-old Basti and her story.   Basti lives with her guardian, Lodyma who is the local Witnesser of Miracles. Lodyma investigates ‘miracles’ and spins them into stories she tells at the night markets, and Basti – as the title suggests – is her apprentice. She has an old Polaroid camera which she uses to take photos of miracles – but she also secretly takes photos. ‘That’s what my photos are. Little moments. All the good moments, the kind moments, the moments of care and love that, if you add them all together, make a life sweet.’   I raced through this tender story of family and adventure, of a young girl finding a sense of belonging. All of the narrating characters in Bren’s books that I’ve read have wonderfully distinctive, appealing voices and Basti is no exception.   I absolutely loved this and it’s a hard recommend from me.   #sarahsfridayfavourites @macdibble #loveozmg @loveozmg @allenandunwin #theapprenticewitnesser #mglit #middlegrade #kidsbookstagram #middlegradebooks #middlegradefiction #kidsbookstagram #childrensbookstagram   #lovethisbook #bookstagram #littlebookworm   #childrenreading #kidsbookswelove #childrensbookreviews #kidlit

I try to read from the library I work in so that I can recommend books to students, and this one was available on audio, so I thought I'd give it a go. It's set in WWII London, and readers will see the effects of war on those on the home front through the eyes of Nellie Morris. Nellie is a young woman who lives a fairly normal life, but she has high hopes for adventure and travel that just doesn't seem possible right now. There is so much uncertainty for the future, not to mention the day-to-day problems like rationing and evacuations. She has a good job at the mayor's office, great friends and family, but still she longs for more. When she bumps into a dashing American serviceman, it seems like her dreams are all about to come true. But one terrible event, that everyone seems to share a portion of blame for, changes her whole world. This is a wonderful historical fiction novel for teens. Some historical novels can get really long as they set up the 'world' the characters inhabit, just like a fantasy novel. This was able to present the setting without labouring the point, the story kept moving at a good pace. Obviously, the author is very well known from the screen, which helps them get a publishing deal, and helps them get excellent editors from the publishing house to work on the story. This is a good book that hits the mark for a adolescent audience. In fact it makes a nice change from the teen romance books that usually get popular through Tiktok. #nineteensteps #milliebobbybrown #teenfiction #teenbooks #kidlit

For the last day of #palindrome week (because 4/30/24 won't be a palindrome anymore!), I'm giving away stickers from my palindrome-packed picture book, Was It a Cat I Saw?🎉 DRAW DETAILS - Tell me about your cat! If you don't have a cat, tell me about your favorite fictional feline! If you don't have one of those either, tell me what animal makes you happy! - Draw closes at 11:59 pm EST on Thursday, May 2. Two winners will be randomly selected on Friday. - Draw is open worldwide. My cat has only been with us for a month, but my desire for a cat is decades old! Nimbus is a snuggly (and hypoallergenic!) sweetheart who loves to stalk his toys and look at wildlife out the window. The minute you pick him up, he purrs like rumbling thunder. Fun fact: Nimbus comes from the same breeder as one of @charlenedraws's cats. That makes two #KidLit cats from @allpointsneva! *** WAS IT A CAT I SAW? (illus. @emmalidiasquillari) is the story of a lost cat, a found friend, and a girl who speaks only in palindromes. It's available now from @amicus_publishing. 🐱 #CanLit #Giveaway #Bookstagram #CatsOfInstagram #SiberianCat

I’m not going to bury the lede here: I think every expectant family that wants a book to help their child understand the miracle happening in Mom’s belly should get a copy of “Nine Months: Before a Baby Is Born.” It’s wonderfully written, exquisitely illustrated and incredibly informative for readers of all ages. “Nine Months” follows a family of three: Mom is pregnant, and the parents are helping their soon-to-be-older child understand and share the experience of expecting. Nearly every spread of the book includes a visual depiction (nearly all pictures of Baby are actual size) and description of Baby’s progress in the womb on the left page, and scenes of the family experiencing each stage of the pregnancy on the right page. There’s a rhyme scheme here, and if you plucked just @mirandapaulbooks’ skillfully written words from this book and put them on a page, it would read as a poignant poem about pregnancy. Add @authorjasonchin’s beautiful and detailed artwork to the mix and you’ve got a book that pulls at your heartstrings in ways you might not expect given the educational angle of the story. I absolutely love that “Nine Months” doesn’t shy away from showing and explaining to young readers what’s actually going on in Mom’s belly during pregnancy yet somehow finds a way to do it in a way that’s magical, engaging and accessible. For grownup readers, this book is a surprisingly helpful overview of the month-to-month changes in the womb. It’s succinct, easy to understand and beautiful, and the additional content at the end of the book is invaluable for all readers. Brianna has lived every page in this book, and so has Danielle. To see them finally together on this side of the womb, with journeys that were similar yet distinct, is the most incredible thing to witness. “Nine Months” helps me appreciate it all. Click the link in my bio to purchase this book. ⁣⁣⁣ Publisher: Neal Porter Books (an imprint of @holidayhousebks; 2019) Age range: 4-8 years ⁣⁣⁣ #childrensbooks #kidlit #kidsbooks #childrensbookreview #kidsbookstagram #kidsbooks #picturebooks #picturebook #ninemonths #newbaby #baby #birth #pregnancy

World Book Day happens in the month of April and I love that so many schools celebrate it with book character dress-up days, book fairs and author talks. I was at Invictus International School Bukit Timah last week for its celebration and I had such a lovely time sharing about my books with everyone. Check out the beautiful display of my books the school made 🥲 Some of the students came up to me after my talk to ask more questions, and tell me about their favourite books and that they are also writing their own books. Being able to meet and chat with my readers is really one of the things I love most about school visits. So, thank you @invictus.international.school Bukit Timah for the lovely pics and for having me 🤗 I also took the opportunity to explore the vicinity before a second school visit (swipe to see!). #MyBFFIsAnAlien actually has a number of mentions of places in Bukit Timah as Abri and Octavia's school is in Bukit Timah and they live in the area. So, it was nice to finally see Beauty World Centre, which is in an important scene in Turbulence. I've actually never been there and had only seen it in pictures, but the scene was exactly how I pictured it, down to the McD facing the road and the stairs leading up to the mall. I hope when reading my books, readers who live here are able to relate to the many familiar Singapore landmarks in them. This is also one reason why I love writing stories set in Singapore - so we can see ourselves and our home in stories 😊 . . . . . #middlegrade #kidlit #singlit #sgauthors #authortalk #authorlife #supportlocalsg @readershouse785 @epigrambooks

This is one of the earliest #kidlit pictures I drew when I rediscovered my love of art in about 2004, featuring two of my daughters. I created it with my first set of Prismacolor pencils, and I updated it just a bit for today’s post. #kidlit #illustration #art #artist #asianamericanartist #drawing #artists #childrensbookillustration #artistsoninstagram

Our kindergarten, first, and second grade students got to hear @supriya.kelkar speak about how your name makes you unique and then did a draw along! #read #kidlit #readersareaders #authorvist #ourschoolourauthor

I died a year ago today. That’s the first line of my YA novel. I dreamed those very words, the premise and the characters, and knew I needed to get out of bed and write it down. I also believe an angel sent those words to me. Mia Ricci is my first main character—the main main of the three POV characters. She’s an almost seventeen girl and she’s dead.👻 The story revolves around her and her death. She has a lot to say. And learn. “Angels aren’t lifeless; we are very much alive. And we make ghostly visits.” —Mia Mia is a ghost. An angel. She returns to her small Texas town a year later to check on her boyfriend, best friend, and family. Mia is my angelic main character. Hopefully one day you'll get to know her better. 👻 Do you believe in ghosts?

Hello hello! Another little story from my sketchbook...it's still half baked though..have fun! It's a big Day for Netai Buro from Moheshtola..after years of persistence and hard work, he has finally been able to capture the BIG FISH, the Flying Vampire and his whole gang...a professionally trained mosquito killer (Netai Buro who wasn't always a Buro!), he is a man of many skills and stories of his dangerously exciting encounters with all kinds of dangerous beings never get boring..from evil spirits and ghosts like Petni, Brahmadaitya, Mamdo and Shakchunni to Pishach and dakinis who have created havoc in peaceful neighborhoods..none could stand against him...not even the mischievous and Swift cockroaches and Shuopokas...once a reknowned Tantric , he had to shift his profession to keep up with the changing times( well you always have to upskill to survive it seems 👀), but his years of experience has finally helped him capture this vengeful, bloodsucking vampire, and get rid of him for good.. and it wasn't an easy job I tell you! From garlic, lemons and chillies, salt and coils , to finally the advanced mosquito killing Bats ..that's what did it for him..It was a whole day's work...and once again Netai Buro came out victorious...with another story of his brilliance that will move around in the neighbourhood for generations!!..Netai Buro the hero of Moheshtola. #childrensillustration #kidsillustration #kidlit #kidlitart #kidlitartist #picturebookillustration #storytelling #storyteller #characterillustration #spookystories #vampire #mosquitokiller #sketchbook #ghostlore #illustration_daily #illustrationoftheday #illustrationartists #illustration #bengaliillustration #indianillustrator

Spread #11 In Spread #11 Left LiLy arrives at home and opens a box that Luis gave her before leaving the beach. It has a jar with sand and shells from @surfsidebeachtx This is something @khristi33 and I do when we go to the beach. One of the things that we will include in the jar is a pink and purple dinosaur we found when we went to take pictures back in November. We are taking the picture at our friend @nataliesteencamps fireplace because it is beautiful. Spread #11 Right will include a page like the first page in the book with information about 3 other animals from Surfside Beach. We know one of them will be a Peter Piper and the other 2 will depend on the animals we see when we take pictures in May.
