The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI), and the children’s book world, is saddened by the news that author, mentor and friend, Jane Yolen, has died. She was 87 and her loss cannot be measured.

Today is the first Mother’s Day that this sweet boy and his siblings are without their mom.

I’m thrilled to be leading a children’s workshop at @gburgbookfest! #kidlit #gaithersburgbookfest
Visited a bookstore in NYC (Words on Warren) and found a cubbie and decorated it for Jane Yolen. You brought us so many wonderful words! #kidlit
