This is the most satisfying moment, when an illustrator sees the book published in different languages. I dream of seeing it in Persian too!

Missing Mama by @armyvet5.bsky.social and illustrated by @rahele.bsky.social is a beautiful picture book about PTSD. Momma comes back from army deployment. Some days she’s sad and can’t bring her “sunlight spotlight smile.”

Even as an adult I dream of other futures for myself. How much more true is it when you’re young and the future is limitless? #interview #picturebook #kidlit #bookblogger jenabenton.com/2025/04/18/s...
