Little Thoughts Press

Night noises, moths in the moonlight, the darkness of the ocean depths, and more... The new issue of Little Thoughts Press (@littlethoughtspress.com) is here, just in time to light up the imaginations of young readers during spooky season. 🔦👀🔦 littlethoughtspress.com/issues

Little Thoughts Press In the Dark Issue is Out Today! Thrilled to have A Tangle of Night Noises included. @littlethoughtspress.com littlethoughtspress.gumroad.com/l/ltpmag15

Kidlit community does anyone know the writer Jane Trenholm? If so, please encourage her to get in touch with me at Little Thoughts Press! We want to include her work in our next issue but I have not received any response to my multiple attempts at contact & am running out of time before we print.

My illustration for “On the Move Again” by @cathystenquist.bsky.social for the @littlethoughtspress.com Traditions & Rituals issue. I love how the family in this story thanks each room in the home with a hug. ❤️ #kidlit

Illustrating something a little scary, and a little cute for @littlethoughtspress.com upcoming issue "In the Dark." It's a fun balance! The poem this drawing is for is so fun! Stay tuned this fall for the issue's release! #kidlitart #illustration #kidlit

If you're waiting for a response on In the Dark submissions, please be patient with me! I'll have all responses sent by the EOD on Wed. A summer without childcare & the start of a new school year have set me back a bit, but every free minute I have is used to send decisions. Sorry for the delay.

Can you squeeze in one more road trip this summer? Why not use @shaunjexauthor.bsky.social's poetry collection about the oddest — and shyest — creatures in North America as your guidebook? Check out @littlethoughtspress.com's blog for details. www.littlethoughtspress.com/post/book-re...

Check it out! I have a story in this issue of @littlethoughtspress.com.

Having a hard time starting the day? Add some magic! My poem "A Magical Morning" adds that spakle in the Little Thoughts Press "Traditions & Rituals" issue. Read the whole issue here: littlethoughtspress.gumroad.com/l/ltpmag14 @littlethoughtspress.com

So excited to be in this issue with my poem “Magical Morning”!

A little mutual aid flashback from grade school...

“A Very Serious Report on the Boogers in My Nose” by @genesis-pearl.bsky.social is a very timely piece now that allergy season is upon us! I had the very serious assignment of illustrating the problematic boogers.

Illustrating “I Once Met a Man…” tickled my funny bone! You can find this idiom-packed poem by David McMullin on page 2 of @littlethoughtspress.com Issue 13: Head, Shoulders, Spleen & Nose. @davidmcmullin.bsky.social #Kidlitillustration #poetryforkids #kidsmagazine #childrensillustration #kidlit
