A boy known as “the Mapmaker” makes maps of cities, countries, and continents. But the map a new friend asks him to draw is his biggest challenge yet.
Check out THE BOY WHO LOVED MAPS by @Kari_D_Allen + @gBrianKaras.

I see #librarians trending, and my heart leaps! Hooray for hard-working librarians who stand strong and put up with a lot of fuss. <-- Understatement. #kidlit #Thankful #books #picturebooks #freedom #Reading

Received the best review EVER when a friend sent a video of her granddaughter reading our @ChronicleKids book, Does a Bulldozer Have a Butt?, illustrated by @kfaisteele. After cracking up (no pun intended) over various spreads, she declared: "I'm going butt crazy!" 😆🍑😆🍑😆🍑

Thanks so much to everyone who has entered the MY SCHOOL STINKS #giveaway! I am overwhelmed (in the best possible way) by the number of retweets. When my daughter pointed out the notifications yesterday, I panicked and assumed autocorrect promised a boat instead of a book!
