The June review roundup is live! I’m back at it with the five-word review challenge for a new batch of picture books.
Curious which new release earned its score in "seabed sighs" or "bacon breakfasts"? Check out the list.

Only Picture Books
When I do author visits at schools, kids always have interesting questions and comments. Today a kindergartner took Q&A time to tell me, "Yesterday was my mom's first time calling 911." 😬 Luckily, the class had to leave at that point so I didn't have to dig any deeper on that one!
Check out my latest author newsletter for a peek inside my new picture book, Even Steven, illustrated by Daniel Wiseman, plus some more picture book recommendations! preview.mailerlite.io/preview/3869...
There's still time to make your plans for National Doughnut Day on June 5!
MA friends - join me Friday 6/5 at 4pm for a preschool event at Evergreen Day School in Cambridge. I'll be reading Don't Hug Doug and Dozens of Doughnuts for a story time focused on personal space, boundaries, and friendship, and signing new books, too. RSVP link here: carriefinison.com/events
