  1. I got this book for free 😃 It's an incredible, fully illustrated, children's book about an old growth tree in an ancient forest & the wildlife, flora & mycelium, which all support each other in the ecosystem.

    A Tree in the Ancient Forest by Carol Reed Jones & illustrated with drawings by Christopher Canyon.

    A really wonderful, educational book that all ages would enjoy & appreciate. This was a fabulous #FreeBook score 💚 It doesn't fit inside my little free library so I'm gifting it to a nearby community center's children's library 😊

  15. Words are everywhere—but for children, they shape how the world begins to make sense.

    Word Up by Raven Howell is a playful and thoughtful picture book that explores how words can heal, hurt, and connect us. It’s the kind of story that doesn’t just get read—it gets talked about.

  16. I found another cute picture book for y'all. Worm Loves Worm. All of their friends are very exciting for their wedding, but everyone has different expectations for how a wedding should go, and the worms don't fit any of them. This is a lovely celebration of the people who don't fit cultural expectations (in an explicitly queer way).

  23. I stumbled across this picture book while shelving at work a few days ago. I had to share it!

    Cecilia has two jobs. One job is to be a child. The other job is to accompany her parents around town and interpret for them. It’s an important job, but Cecilia is so tired! There are many children like Cecilia in the world. Their work needs to be recognized, so I’m grateful that books like this exist. But also, society can do better!

  25. Wow, that's a lot gloom in your feed. Let's have an uplifting children's book, for morale.

    Leo loves his lavender skirt, but the other kids make fun of him for wearing it. This leads to Leo and his parents taking a trip through the expanse of men's fashion across the world with a bonus history lesson about the women who fought for the right to wear the clothes they wanted.
