What I’m Doing at Kirkus This Week,
Plus What I Did Last Week,

I know I shouldn’t use the word “nerd” to describe someone who merely has a deep and abiding passion for something—it’s not entirely fair—but there’s just no two ways about it: My column over at Kirkus today is for fellow picture book nerds.

Last week, I wrote here about Salina Yoon’s Found. Today, I’m sharing some of her art from the book.
Enjoy.
