#Halloween #kidzbooks
Every year I pen a Halloween story starter for a writing contest run by the Syracuse newspaper. Here's this year's!

Contest entry is limited to central NY, but parents and teachers anywhere should feel free to use this just for fun!

GROWING HOME is written by Beth Ferry, illustrated by @terryfan.bsky.social and @ericfan.bsky.social, published by @simonkids.bsky.social. More info about this middle grade here. #KidLit #PrimarySky #EduSky 📚👍🏽
I was able to squeeze in one last summer read before I head back to work tomorrow, and I am so glad that I did.

Growing Home is magical. I think it might be the best middle grade book to read aloud from 2025. The characters are so unique and unforgettable. What a fun book!!!!

I love this one! One of my fall read alouds for early primary. Great for retelling also! #kidlit #primarysky
Tonight’s book rec for littles is Thank You, Omu! By Oge Mora. It is a book about sharing and kindness. Beautiful illustrations. It is a Caldecott Honor book and Coretta Scott King Awardee.

I *love* hearing when educators and librarians use my books in the classroom, do readalouds with students etc.

If you are one of these, please do tag me if you post about it? #EduSky #PrimarySky

This is the one thing I really miss from the Other platform.

Teachers - what is your favourite book to study and read to your class?

Mine is still Varjak Paw by SF Said. My year 4s are always totally engrossed in the story & the work they produce is superb.

Let me know yours ⤵️

Our school is exceptionally drab but being greeted each morning by our @debbieohi.com poster and book stuffies peeking out the window puts a smile on my face. #kidlit

Two things:

1. Yes, this is a totally acceptable lunch when on summer holiday.

2. It's cream first, then jam..

I don't make the rules!

Educators & librarians! Looking for authentic book recommendations from the #KidLit #MGLit #YALit community here on Bluesky? Focus is on recommendations of books that people have actually READ (rather than self-promo or "can't wait to read this").

Found the first few chapters particularly good. Discussion of Bowlby & attachment etc. Particularly liked ideas around avoiding projecting your own emotions/being a container for others. "School Refusal" (not my preferred term) chapter needs development to capture and probably should be /1

Primary teachers..

What are your favourite subjects to teach?

Mine are maths, history & science.

I hope everyone is getting through this mammoth Term 1 in the UK. Week 8 next week feels illegal. Looking forward to a week to switch off! #edusky #primarysky

Delighted there are SO many K-12 educators & librarians joining Bluesky that I can't keep up. If you're an educator/librarian for Kindergarten thru high school & would like to be added to my List, pls reply.
