Listening to @lxgino talk at #GCCL about writing so “kids have an understanding of who’s in the world.”

What a way to end #GCCL - @ElanaKArnold gave such an honest and raw presentation about how her life experiences and observations influence her writing.

Thanks for joining us this morning, @LindaHume10–and thanks for inviting me to spend some time w you all, @gcbaconference! ❤️🙏🏽 @AuthorVillage #GCCL
.@bottomshelfbks presentation at #GCCL was incredibly moving and touching - and funny.
Loved hearing him talk about “connecting with people through the power of book,” the relationship w/his illustrator, and his bond w/his grandparents.
