Twenty-eight years of children's librarianship and I would like you to know that Denise Fleming is one author who never ever disappoints in children's picture books. (25 years of children's books) She hits the mark again and again with her words and her amazing art. Her books have been quietly demonstrating diversity before the #WeNeedDiverseBooks campaign began. I only point this out because she is an accomplished, smart woman, author, illustrator, artist who is way ahead of the trends. Actually, she's trend-less. She writes and creates from a love of color, nature, children and kindness. And just so you know - all four of those come in all colors!
Her book trailer is absolutely adorable, please click here. You don't want to miss this book. I'll purchase multiple copies for my little branch library. Ms Fleming is a featured author on our summer reading lists. This new title is perfectly timed. Yay and thank you!
For the inside scoop on Denise Fleming and more on her new book which hits the stands tomorrow, take a look at Dylan Teut's fabulous interview with Ms Fleming on his blog, Mile High Reading
