Awww, so sweet! @choldenko @kaaauthor wish you could see kids eyes light up when I tell them #2 Dogtown is coming soon!
I just finished THE TENTH MISTAKE OF HANK HOOPERMAN #mglit last night...became so attached to characters, I could not stop reading! Wonderful story of resilience. May be your best yet!!
Hey #WritingCommunity
I’m Gennifer Choldenko and I write middle grade novels. This month I published my 18th book: The Tenth Mistake of Hank Hooperman. I'm here because I love to write, and I'm too stubborn to give up no matter what.
A #mustread 5⭐️#middleschool novel in verse ULTRAVIOLET by @aida_writes with heart + just-right levity about #puberty: embracing big feelings, first crushes, #ToxicMasculinity, #consent, patriarchal behavior, + more!
Don't we all have GRAY days? Exceptional expository #SEL #picturebook by @LauraDockrill + #kidlitart by Lauren Child! #storytimes #bedtimes #gifts
Got a WWII #mglit fan? SAFIYYAH'S WAR by @HibaNoorKhan1 is a #mustread! Heartwarming view of Muslim community helping to save Jews in #WWII Paris.
Love MAGNOLIA WU! It's quirky, hilarious, heartwarming, with positive messages seamlessly woven into original storyline (lost socks in a laundry?) One of most memorable #mglit titles this year!!
🎨 Draw with Chanel Miller, author and artist of MAGNOLIA WU UNFOLDS IT ALL—an instant New York Times bestseller!

Want a fun #kids game to teach #letter + #phonetic awareness? Kids will beg to play after #reading GO AND GET WITH REX #picturebook by creative duo David LaRochelle & Mike Wohnoutka!
Great #kidlit #summerreading list (including the bonus book)!
Hard to narrow it down, but here are 10 books I'm looking forward to this summer (plus one bonus book at the end because I had to). 100scopenotes.com/2024/05/14…
Thanks for sharing! Consistent with my disheartening observations in #publiclibrary that circ of #middlegrade #chapterbooks is down since pandemic.
At his new school, a private one with no state testing, my 7th grader read 6 books in English class this year, and is currently writing a 5-pg paper on the history of jazz—a real paper, w/an outline, notecards, and multiple rounds of revision. Last year.. chronicle.com/article/is-thi…
Need hilarious, interactive #storytime read? DOG VS. STRAWBERRY by Nelly Buchet & @AndreaZuill #kidlit #picturebook is a sure hit! #edchat
Remarkable #mglit COYOTE LOST AND FOUND by @DanGemeinhart is "...like lip balm for your soul..." All the feels, more highs than lows. Dynamic characters in robust relationships that gently encourage "clean up your messes." #mustread!
Uses for SPIDER IN THE WELL by @jesshgn: #storytime. entertainment. ethics discussion launcher. reader's theater. fun + clever #mustread #kidlit #picturebook!
Hoping you +@deandra_hodge partner for many more #kidlit #sports #biographies that show readers how to win not just on court or field!

Huzzah for outstanding #PictureBooks in last month! A fav is PAPA'S MAGICAL WATER-JUG CLOCK by @JesusTrejo + @elizakinkz Just so endearing, full of family love, hard work, and loads of giggles!
Correct! Heartwarming #mglit #CoyoteSunrise ”deserves to be turned into a movie!” @WaldenMedia How long do we have to wait???
The Remarkable Journey of Coyote Sunrise is coming to the big screen!
