"Thank you to all the teachers, educators, and librarians who actively support creators drawing from Mesoamerican traditions. The more narrative 'on‑ramps' we build, the more readers will discover just how exciting and varied these stories truly are." - @karlavalenti.bsky.social
"As I wrote this ode to theater...I wanted to capture how it feels to sit in the audience as light bounces off the stage and reflect on how theater has always helped me feel less alone."- John Schu
I can't wait to read this new book!🌟
Thanks so much for the opportunity to post on your amazing resource -- #LitLinks!
"After a read-aloud, all the classes went outside and drew their own BIG feelings. It was so much fun! You want an easy lesson plan, friends? Give kids a bucket of chalk! Those students did NOT need to be asked twice!"
Thanks @patricianewman.bsky.social for the opportunity to post on your blog - a terrific resource! What makes a great architect? The ability to solve problems beautifully. Inspire students to think like architects

So appreciative that my good news is shared with SO much good news of the @eastwestlit.bsky.social team! Yay!
"Recalling the shapes, spaces and sunlight in famous grand French parks and his childhood rock garden in China, Pei designed a modern glass pyramid for the Louvre... Invite students to design a new structure that solves a problem for a public building or space. Exp: a hot playground, a windy park."
"With World Ocean Day approaching, it got me thinking of picture books where the water theme is significant. Venturing deep into the sea, Bostelmann painted exactly what she saw. A journey of discovery"-INSTA@ mama_filz @eastwestlit.bsky.social
Yesterday was World Ocean Day!
Our beautiful deep seas are a treasure, and I love to write books about them...

"Rather than referencing one specific performance or theater, I imagined many different kinds of stages and performances in my head and translated those impressions into the illustrations." —Jaime Kim 100scopenotes.com/2026/06/07/e...
