I missed the speech #JonKlassen made when accepting the Astrid Lindgren Award, but if you love writing or making things or both it's quite lovely and worth a listen.

Klassen’s retelling—half picture book, half chapter book—of a Tyrolean folktale. The language is simple, the illustrations gritty, the story dark yet also somehow hopeful in its allusion to trauma, and how Otilla and the skull deal brokenly with the past. #TheSkull #JonKlassen
