Casey Lyall

Canadian author and illustrator friends! If you have any spare, new copies of your books that you would like to donate to two schools that have lost their entire libraries, please send me a message!

I have a stash of them and I would much rather they be in the hands of readers. I can send out sets across Canada so if you know of a school that might be interested, please share this post and let them know. Thank you!

Hi! Hopefully this cute cat caught your attention. This post is for the Canadian teachers/school librarians out there! I would love to send out more free copies of the Howard Wallace, P.I. trilogy for your school library. If you are interested, please let me know and I will send a parcel out to you.

📚👍 So many good books. #kidlit #kidlitart #picturebooks I Used To Be A Dinosaur Casey Lyall & Laurie Keller @caseylyall.bsky.social Funny story with great moments of the chickens being like dinosaurs. Nice use of rhyme. I love the mix of humor and nonfiction elements. Well done!

Congratulations to all of the nominees!

📚👍 So many good books. #kidlit #kidlitart #picturebooks A Spoonful of Frogs Casey Lyall & Verga Brosgol @caseylyall.bsky.social @verabrosgol.bsky.social So many good witchy PBs and this is one of my favs. I take it out each year. Excellent escalation in crazyness and humor. Funny/surprise ending.

📚👍 So many good books. #kidlit #kidlitart #picturebooks Whale, That Was Unexpected Casey Lyall Kathryn Durst @caseylyall.bsky.social My new favorite read-aloud. Cumulative story of sorts. Great wordplay and rhythm. Fun voice. I enjoyed reading this one.

Today is a very cool day. It's the TENTH anniversary of the publication of my first book, Howard Wallace, P.I. 🔍💙 To celebrate this milestone, I'm doing a special giveaway! (1/5)

The pipeline between all things Harry Potter and hurting trans lives is just that--one pipe. Straight line. Direct funding. Not a complicated diagram. When you don't watch the Harry Potter preview, that helps. Not getting the views helps.

Very cool to see Whale, That was Unexpected featured in this article from the Montreal Gazette: montrealgazette.com/entertainmen...

Don't miss this wonderful event on Monday, August 31!

have we all made our donations to Dolly's Imagination Library yet? 👀 pony up (what you can) for the queen, and for child literacy. donate.imaginationlibrary.com

During the panel this app called Foxglove was mentioned. Similarly to Glaze and Nightshade it poison your art for scrapers, with the advantage that you don’t have to download a program locally to do that and the process is super quick online. foxgloveapp.com

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful
