All the Hulk Feels is a fantastic book for exploring feelings with younger readers. It won a well deserved Eisner Award, and the story/art by @dansantat.bsky.social are incredible!

It’s weird but after one year DON’T TRUST FISH has finally made it on to the NY Times list at #5. Three cheers to my partner in crime @unshavedmouse.bsky.social for writing a classic of a manuscript that I had the wonderful honor of illustrating. I’m just along for the glorious ride ❤️
The sarcasm of this book is half its charm. @unshavedmouse.bsky.social doubts the integrity of fish while peppering facts about them throughout his story. @dansantat.bsky.social amps up the fun with realistic and humorous illustrations. Readers will learn, laugh, and wonder about crabs. #PBreview

Sashimi is on a mission to find the beast of Barnacle Bay-without anyone finding out why his skin is orange & he constantly needs water. This tale of friendship & self-discovery is wonderful, full of great characters & lots of humour. Rec'd!! @dansantat.bsky.social
I love this story about pitcher Angel Cervantes' good luck charm, Jerry the Dinosaur. It reminds me of Nicholas and his toy dinosaur from my picture book DAD AND THE DINOSAUR, illustrated by @dansantat.bsky.social. It's a great read for Father's Day this weekend!
A UCLA pitcher brings a toy dinosaur named Jerry to the mound. Here’s why it helps
Good-luck rituals may improve performance because they increase a person’s sense of self-efficacy — or their confidence in their ability.

France looks good! I thought Maignon would be an improvement over the aging Hugo Lloris but it turns out Maignon is a bit of a MESSnon. Mbappe scoring 20 yards out seemingly with free will will be scary as the tournament goes on #WorldCup2026
Mbappe almost scoring like it's simply free will 20 yards out. Amazing! #WorldCup2026
That Barcola goal is good but the Rabiot pass was everything #WorldCup2026
Cape Verde ties Spain and leaves them scoreless. Egypt currently beating Belgium 1-0. This is insane! #worldcup2026
I’m thrilled to see New York on the verge of seeing their team win their first title after 53 years. I remember growing up and wanting Patrick Ewing to win a title so badly but the Celtics and Bulls always got in the way. Now they’re one win away. Knicks in 5
#Fiction #HBReviewoftheWeek SASHIMI by @dansantat.bsky.social (Roaring Brook/ @mackidsbooks.bsky.social ): "Broad humor and slapstick antics leading up to the annual Barnacle Bay Beast Festival are grounded by Sashimi’s desire to find someone who can understand him" www.hbook.com/story/review...
Gosh, I wish I knew so I could bottle it. I’ve had a lot on, so my fatigue has been pretty bad. So maybe just a free weekend ahead and some actual sunshine. But I suspect Dan Santat’s joyful new comic has probably helped me over the hump.

Strong recommend for @dansantat.bsky.social’s latest comic A Fishboy Named Sashimi. Properly funny, great characters and gorgeous, clever artwork. (And I find it particularly hilarious that he’s released this on the back of illustrating the utterly fabulous Don’t Trust Fish. 😅) #KidLitUK #KidLit
