Kid-Lit Community!

Let’s celebrate our love for children's books, comics, graphic novels, and beautiful illustrations!

Hello, Kid-Lit Lovers!

Welcome to our cozy little corner for all things children's books! Whether you adore board books, chapter books, graphic novels, or young adult books, this is the perfect spot for discovering and celebrating new stories together!

Whether you're a creator or a passionate reader, I’d love to hear about your Substack where you share your love for children’s literature—whether it’s through writing, illustrating, reviewing, or sharing awesome books, graphic novels, or comics. Just drop a comment below!

I'll keep our list fresh and updated and share your Substack or posts in Story Makers Art Club so we can all connect and grow as a community! 💖
