    Thanks for including Franklin and Luna go to the Moon ☺ Glad you enjoyed it. It's the second in a trilogy (though you can read them in any order); the first is Franklin's Flying Bookshop and the third is Franklin and Luna and the Book of Fairy Tales. xx

    I just came across this now and wanted to thank you so much for your wonderfully kind words about "Flashlight Night!" It was a joy to write, and it makes me so happy to know folk are enjoying reading it. (And to be included on a list with such fantastic company, no less!)

    The marriage of art and language is why picture books are so dear to my heart as well ♥️
    I think Gaston might need to find it’s way to a certain set of grandbabies this Christmas 🥰
    I don’t care sounds lovely. ☺️

    Beautiful video. Adding I Don’t Care to my wishlist. If you haven’t seen/ read Grandpas Window yet I recommend that one. Little girl dealing with end of life of her Grandfather and it’s so beautiful and poignant.

      Oh also “the story of And: the little word that changed the world by Sandy Eisenberg Sasso. Probably my favorite picture book right now. Colorful playful and powerful

    • @Shellyish
      @Shellyish  Před 10 měsíci

      I'll definitely have to look both those titles up.

    Wonderful! Barnabus is a favorite! Have you tried Bear by Staffan Gnosspelius? No words, just a sweet story about friends using only pictures. (Even though I keep recommending books you've already read, I'm gonna keep trying to reciprocate by making them 🙂)

    • @Shellyish
      @Shellyish  Před 10 měsíci

      HA! I think Bear is new to me. I'll have to check if my library has it. Thank you!
