I didn’t find out about #scbwiartober2026 until today — the day that I wrapped up putting together a kidlit illustration portfolio.

I’ve been working tirelessly on these illustrations, but I may try to catch up on some prompts over the next few days!

Kirkus Audiobook Reviews: “A magical concoction of friendship and finding the courage to stand up for what’s right.” Kirkus Earphones Award.

RAVEN, RISING by Christine Hartman Derr, cover by Madelyn Goodnight (Heartdrum). Ages 8+ Audio Narrator: Katie Anvil Rich #KidLit @harperstacks.bsky.social

Kirkus Audio Reviews, cover art for RAVEN, RISING (three sixth grade girls sitting in a gazebo, drinking out of mugs, black cat and kittens, sparkles and swirls), "A Magical concoction of friendship and finding the courage to stand up for what's right." Our verdict: Get it. Pink earphones graphic over headshots of Christine Hartman Derr and Katie Anvil rich, both young women with long dark hair, smiling.

Drawing of a giant black dragon trying to gobble up the moon in the nightsky. There's a forest in the foreground where a Curupira is fearfully looking at the scene.

It's 1994. A twelve-year-old runaway with no phone and no place to call home.

What she's really looking for isn't a place to hide. It's somewhere to land.

Today’s entries into the children’s book illustration portfolio.

#kidlit #childrensbookillustration #childrensbook #illustration #sketch #digitalart #inksketch #sketchbook #portfolio #visdev

A very funky grandma with brown skin, blue-white hair, funky glasses and a purple dress and sneakers stands up from her wheelchair and plays a bright red bass guitar. Lightning bolts emanate from the guitar. A rusty robot with a large metal “backpack” power supply carries a grocery bag within which is a bag of dog food. A yellow dog stands underfoot the robot, tongue hanging out and a big smile on its face. The dog bowl sits empty next to the dog

I was so excited to see another toad book by @jashar.bsky.social! TOAD ON THE GO is fabulous. Kids will love finding the other animals' blunders in the illustrations, and readers of all ages need reminders that everyone makes mistakes. #kidlit 📚👍

cover of TOAD ON THE GO shows a toad driving an orange tow truck towards the right with lines extending from the back to show that he is driving fast; title in yellow at the top on green background; photo is of book in my hand in front of light blue wall

5⭐️ Friday with my kids’ favorite books. This week …

Millie Fleur’s Poison Garden
By Christy Mandin

Every time we read this book my kids pick a new favorite plant, though sneezing stickyweed is almost always on the list.

I’m more of a grumpy gilliflower girl.

"James and the Giant Peach by way of The Muppet Movie, with the adventurous high spirits and the meta-framing of The Princess Bride and the lush weirdness of Hayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Away." It's the cover of @iamjameskennedy.bsky.social's latest. #kidlit 📚👍 afuse8production.slj.com/2026/10/09/i...

The Cafe at the Edge of the Woods

PB series. Charming little ogre character. Great illustrations. Very rich and inviting.

Book cover for "The Café at the Edge of the Woods" showing a woman stirring a bowl and a small green creature standing before a large black shadowy figure with two white eyes.
