Welcome home little buddy! And a PSA 🔥 (no I didn’t paint eyes on it! Smoke detectors should never be painted!)

Talk about MAILBOX JOY! My picture book made into earrings with scrabble tiles?!?! THANK YOU @kazwindness.bsky.social 🤩

Lawn-Mowing Day cover reveal! This is the first book in my Little Landscaper board book series publishing with Little Simon! Let’s snip snip, rumble rumble and vroom vroom! 💚

Recs please! Got a favorite brand of pen that doesn’t act like it’s out of ink when it’s not?! 😤

At a school visit today a 3rd grader asked if I were a YouTuber and he seemed quite bummed when I said - nope, just an author-illustrator! 😅

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! I'm open to PB and BB illustration work and I'm repped by @jenrofe.bsky.social at @andreabrownlit.bsky.social www.BreannaCarzoo.com

Definitely on purpose! 🤩

Had a realization while walking the dog today. Is Lou named ‘Lou’ because he is a Loo for dogs, @breannacarzoo.bsky.social? Because if so you are a genius. If not that’s okay, Lou is still a cool name and that’s a wonderful coincidence. But if you did that on purpose, wow. Mind blown. Haha

Huge congrats to @studiohoffmann.bsky.social on 3 years of his Gab ‘n’ Doodle series! Can’t wait to binge watch more episodes on YouTube when I jump into final art making here soon! 🤩

SPRING DELIGHTS! 🌼 Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! I'm open to PB and BB illustration work, I make with cut paper collage, and I'm repped by @jenrofe.bsky.social at @andreabrownlit.bsky.social www.BreannaCarzoo.com

I made a friend from the way too many dandelions that suddenly appeared in my yard 🌼

Need a delightful escape? Two Point Museum is sooooo good! Can't stop playing! Their description: "Curate and manage incredible museums! Explore to discover amazing artifacts. Design and refine the layout, keep staff happy, guests entertained, donations plentiful… and children off the exhibits"

✨Author presentation tip!✨Have 'extras' for shy audiences who might not have come up with questions yet! (This really never happens for me, but I like being prepared for the possible silence, and I often jump to the extra slides to answer commonly asked questions with visuals!)

!NEWS! I am opening back up to picture-book TEXT queries, but with limitations: * I will accept them on ONLY the 1st of each month. * You must query with 3 completed texts. * I cannot guarantee a personal response. See the ABLA website for more: www.andreabrownlit.com/Team/jennife... #amquerying

Can I make you a latte? I'm pretty proud of my latte art skills...

Did you know most beetles only live a year? For us humans, it's week 6 of 52 of 2025. I’ve been using this framing to help me realize the power and potential of each week—and to not let the week go by with just the same old/same old. 💛🪲

Me and my art supplies are on break. See ya in 2025 friends!

Everything about this Lou tree is perfect - but that yellow garland?! Comedic genius!!!

📚⁉️ looking for picture books about a friend moving away for my nephew. Have any favorites?!

Is 2pm too late for this espresso?! Guess we’ll find out tonight 🤪

What do you wish people would gift you for Christmas, but never do? 👀🎄

It’s #kidlitartpostcard day! It brings me joy to design and illustrate fall-in-loveable characters like these in cut paper✂️! I would truly LOVE to see the PB and BB projects you think I’d be a great fit for! More here: Breannacarzoo.com Rep: @jenrofe.bsky.social at @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

Reminding myself this week that I don’t sit down to write because I feel inspired. I sit down to write so I’ll be there, working & ready to go when inspiration shows up.

Our indie bookstore friends rely on their sales during the holiday season to support them through the year 💛 Let’s show them love and support so they stay in our communities for years to come! 📚

No one said that a 49 year old man can't enter a children's coloring contest.

Who's working today? 🎨💛
