Always happy to hear about Santiago in the wild 🦕🦖 Thanks for sharing!
Happy first day of school! 🍎✏️ Starting somewhere new can be tough. In Santiago’s Dinosaurios, Santiago finds a way to connect through his love of dinosaurs. 🦕 We loved sharing this story with readers this summer. By @marianariosrmz1, illustrated by Udayana Lugo.

This is a beautifully written story to read THREADS ZLATA'S UKRAINIAN SHIRT by Lina Maslo. From the book copy: "... tells a tale of one child's ability to find hope and healing for herself and others even in the darkest of times." #Monday #Holodomor #UkrainianEmbroidery #kidlit
