The image discusses authentic disability representation in children’s literature and promotes Jenna Elyse Johnson and Anuki López’s chapter book series MAE & MALIBU, a set of illustrated children’s books about a disabled child who manages her epilepsy with the help of her service dog. Against a pale purple background, the title reads: “MAE & MALIBU Chapter Book Series.” Above the title is the hashtag: #disabilitykidlit . Below the title are large images of the covers of the first two chapter books in the series: MAE & MALIBU #1—THE DREAM TEAM and MAE & MALIBU #2—FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL, both written by Jenna Elyse Johnson and illustrated by Anuki López. Below the book covers is a quote from Jenna that reads: “This series has been inspired by my relationship with my own service dog and is truly a dream come true…I hope I get to write MAE AND MALIBU books forever! ~Jenna Elyse Johnson” At the bottom is “Exclusive Interview” with an arrow pointing to: https://www.sarahsteinbacher.com/blog/interview-jenna-elyse-johnson
