Whether you’re celebrating Passover or just passing by, lend an ear to the team @BonjourChai and those of us who had a seat at the Great Canadian Seder.

Bliss is when a picture book team (moi and @barbreidart) connect with a librarian like @msgallant_TL. Her one-on-one rapport with her students is inspiring, as is their wonderful #ILoveYouMore artwork.
So intriguing! 🤯Who knew the text & illustrations not matching was intentional? I reached out to @barbreidart & @emilsher & they told me why! I ❤️ you more than libraries love books. 📚@stephcooperking @VElementary @NLTeachersAssoc #NLEduWeek2024 @EDU_GovNL
Kelly was her usual thoughtful, honest, caring, giving self during the Q-and-As after each reading. I don’t have a quick fix for repairing this broken, beautiful planet of ours but this I know: the world needs more Kellys. Many more. And soon.

A joy to spread the book-loving love.
"I love you more than erasers love mistakes." With our kindergarten students @StGregoryHCDSB this week we are reading I Love You More by @emilsher & @barbreidart, in celebration of Valentine's Day and love in all its forms! ❤️ @ireadcanadian @hcdsb #SchoolLibraryJoy @oslacouncil
I love MQW school more than memories love photographs.
Wonderful morning with Emil Sher and our Grade 3 students…..we love you more!!!❤️❤️❤️@ashleywood123 @mrssquires_ @msrnolan @NLESDCA @CarlaMcIsaac
Quite simply, the students and staff at Mary Queen of the World stole my heart. So has Newfoundland.

A beautiful morning with Author @emilsher learning all about the process that goes into writing and illustrating a picture book! 📚 @MQWSchool #ILoveYouMore ♥️
🤞that other communities take a page from @BrandonMBSD’s book.
The @BrandonMBSD has rejected calls to ban books. Community wins! Fight for everybody’s freedom to read! Big victory in Manitoba. 💥 🏳️⚧️ 🏳️🌈
And I was inspired by all the BCE "Ellas," and all the teachers who instill a love for reading.
We thoroughly enjoyed your visit to BCE! It was engaging and inspiring to all our "Ellas". ❤️📚✍️@nlesdlit @beachycoveelem
Introducing Ella from Beachy Cove Elementary. Ella loves books. Ella is binging on the Hardy Boys. So what was a week of visits to Newfoundland schools and libraries during Canadian Children's Book Week all about? An opportunity to celebrate the Ellas of the world. @scholasticCDA
Here's to the next generation of authors and illustrators. See you at Canadian Children's Book Week 2053!

Our K-3 students also enjoyed a presentation with @emilsher! He told us all about making and publishing “I Love You More”, and had a special message from @barbreidart ! Our future authors loved it more than libraries love books! @StBonaventures #CanadianBookWeek @NLPubLibraries
The pen is mightier than the sword, and sometimes a bullied teen's photographs can deflect razor-sharp taunts. It's gratifying to see a novel spark conversations, and to watch students stoke them.
@kidsbookcentre #CCBCBookWeek
We were so fortunate to have author @emilsher with us as a part of #CanadianBookWeek. Emil shared his novel “Young Man with Camera”. He discussed the theme of “there’s more than meets the eye” with our Gr. 6 and Gr. 7 students. We thoroughly enjoyed his insight! @StBonaventures
Some of the paper hearts were worse for wear by the time Friday rolled around during Canadian Children's Book Week. Thankfully, mine's not made of paper. And it's full. Thank you @StBonaventures, and all the schools that were so welcoming.
@kidsbookcentre #CCBCBookWeek
We loved it more than the moon loves the stars. Special thanks to @emilsher for visiting us this morning. Thanks to @barbreidart for your video message. @StBonaventures
Day One of six days visiting schools and libraries in Newfoundland, and I'm thinking, "Book Week should be Book Month." @standrewselem

A big thank you to Ms. Foley for arranging this wonderful meeting with author Emil Sher! He wrote a lovely message on our class book❤️@RoncalliSchool #emilsher#barbarareid
I hope it's only a matter of time before their copy of #ILoveYouMore becomes dog-eared. (Cue the groan.)
My own kids were excited to read their new @emilsher & @barbreidart book! They even had to share with the dog. 🤭❤️
Emil Sher retweeted
So much excitement this afternoon with @emilsher visiting us @RoncalliSchool ! Thanks @barbreidart for helping me connect with him!
Lucky me that @mrs_cassiefoley reached out after meeting @barbreidart at a conference. "I hear you're coming to Newfoundland." To behold the humbling beauty of an iceberg was glorious. Time @RoncalliSchool, talking book talk? Sublime. @kidsbookcentre #CCBCBookWeek
Lucky to have gotten to speak with Author @emilsher and Author/Illustrator @barbreidart over the last few months to hear about and see the progress of their latest book together, I Love You More!
And just like that, a marvellous morning becomes a marvellous memory.

I've been dunkin' my Oreos in milk ever since.
Thank you @emilsher for visiting @AdmiralsAcad_NL today! We absolutely “Loved it more than Oreos love Milk” Thank you to @barbreidart for her virtual pop in and to @ms_ehamilton and @mstpinhorn for setting up this wonderful memory for our students! ❤️
