Sheila Heti’s A GARDEN OF CREATURES is a beautiful & thoughtful #PictureBook about loss & grief. Esme Shapiro’s illustrations are warm & wonderful. A balm to the soul. “When someone dies, we miss them… Missing someone is a way of keeping them close.” https://t.co/2wMbBNRqwU

Looking for fun summer reading? I highly recommend @salmahwrites’ #MG novel THE SECRET DIARY OF MONA HASSAN. Mona is a smart, funny pre-teen growing up in Dubai when the 1st Gulf War breaks out. Join her as she deals w/ family, school, her 1st crush, & emigration to Canada. https://t.co/HTLbXh59VK

I read @kevinarts new book APARTMENT 713 over the weekend & it’s fantastic! Full of adventure & mystery, & I love the way it brings history alive. But no one warned me that the ending is *heartbreaking”—so here’s your warning to have tissues handy! 🤧 https://t.co/9mrQTYXA2b
