I'm a huge NPR fan so it was incredible to chat with them about their Book Concierge and the need for diverse books!
My @NPRpubliceditor colleague @whichkayla took a close look at @nprbooks' beloved #BookConcierge, ft. NPR staff and outside experts @jbakernyc, @MarkDoesStuff, Nicole Johnson & @ctrichmond of @diversebooks. #BookTwitter, nerd out with me: npr.org/sections/publicedito…

A cool story about our beautiful baby the Book Concierge!
We wanted to know how the Book Concierge from @nprbooks comes together, and hear from folks in the book world about the significance of diverse year-end collections npr.org/sections/publicedito…

Thanks for letting me know, Kelly. Good piece, @whichkayla. Lots of media bias concerns in education journalism right now (along with everywhere else).

For this week’s @wcp cover story, I asked local people to share the joys that have helped them endure this moment in time. They sent in beautiful words, illustrations, and photos. Featuring lovely watercolor paintings by @JuliaTerbrock bit.ly/3gl9O3f
