Craving a fresh bedtime story? Check out this stellar picture book by @jessixabagley.bsky.social

THE BACK OF THE UNIVERSIE is perfect for space fans!

Read my interview with Jessixa Bagley at www.sarahsteinbacher.com/blog/intervi...

#picturebooks #kidlit #kidlitauthor #authorillustrator #booksky
The image discusses children’s literature and features Jessixa Bagley’s picture book THE BACK OF THE UNIVERSE, an illustrated children’s book about a child’s bedtime ritual that visualizes a journey home from the farthest corner of the universe. Against a dark starry background, the title reads: “Bedtime Kidlit.” Below the title to the right is a large image of the cover of the picture book THE BACK OF THE UNIVERSE, written and illustrated by Jessixa Bagley and published by Neal Porter Books, an imprint of Holiday House. To the left of the book are 4 reviews, each with the reviewer’s icon. The top review from Booklist says: “this serene visual poem offers an inventive, indelible lullaby, a luminous choice for bedtime collections.” The second review from Publishers Weekly says: “this epic wind-down melds telescopic reach with snuggly intimacy.” The third review from School Library Journal says: “a lulling cadence well suited for bedtime sharing.” The bottom review from Kirkus says: “a calming tale that makes the infinite feel a little more manageable.” At the bottom is “Exclusive Interview” with an arrow pointing to: https://www.sarahsteinbacher.com/blog/interview-jessixa-bagley
