🎉 Happiest birthday to the sweetest, most earnest, most humble Bear and his (er...Aline Portman's) new book, THIS IS HOW TO SPOT ANIMALS! 🐻

"The book is toddler manna...Surely among the toddler-pleasingest of toddler pleasers." —Kirkus Reviews

And not only do @theemmapress.bsky.social #namethetranslator on the cover, they even name the translator ON THE SPINE!
😍

Definitely worthy of celebration!

And Kudos to the whole team at The Emma Press!

What a perfect way to celebrate both #InternationalTranslationDay #ITD & the last day of #WorldKidLitMonth: my translator copies of WHEN YOU WERE A CLOUD written by María José Ferrada & illustrated by Azul López (@theemmapress.bsky.social) arrived in the mail!

A selfie (I am a middle-aged white man with close-cropped dark hair and a close-cropped salt-and-pepper beard, wearing a black t-shirt) in front of the bookcase of books I've translated, holding a copy of WHEN yOU WERE A CLOUD, published by The Emma Press, featuring an image by Azul López on the cover of a female-presenting dark-skinned figure in a yellow t-shirt and blue shorts lying on a golden field, looking upward, surrounded by red and green splotches to represent flowers.

A photo of my hand holding two copies of WHEN YOU WERE A CLOUD, so we can see the spine, which reads: Ferrada, López & Schimel and then the title.

So the translator is named not just on the cover but even on the spine!
