Big news: DIFFERENT WITH HIM is now part of the Cooperative Children’s Book Center at UW–Madison 💛📚

It means a lot to have this book included in a national children’s literature resource collection.

Kirsten Boie ist eine der vielseitigsten
Persönlichkeiten der Kinder- und Jugendliteratur im deutschen Sprachraum: Ihr facettenreiches Schaffen umspannt eine Fülle von Genres, poetischen Farben und Erzählregistern für Menschen jeden Alters. Zu ihrem 40. literarischen „Bühnenjubiläum“ und 75. Geburtstag dieses Jahr widmen wir der großen Erzählerin, engagierten Leseförderin und Kinderunterstützerin einen Sammelband, dessen Beiträge zeigen, was sich an und mit Boies Texten lernen lässt.

I got here too early, lol. Here's another #introduction post.

Queer writer, editor, teacher of writing, but mostly SUPER at reading. I post & re-toot about #animals, #climatejustice, #science, #history, #CivilRights, #SFF, #Romance, #LIteraryNonfiction, #library stuff, #ChildLit, #PNW, #Oregon, #gardening, my trike/#biking. I go hard on #Duolingo. I have two #cats. Love to watch #films and some series. Been arguing against T*RFs in the lesbian community since the mid-1990s.

I wrote a piece on teaching children's literature through the history of the book. The other way around works too-- teaching the history of the book through children's literature . #ChildLit #ChildrensLiterature #BookHistory
