HEDWIG SAYS RESPECT TRANS PEOPLE, GIVE THEM ALL THE LOVE AND PROTECTION IN THE WORLD, AND DON’T BE A TERF.
Life seems so strange at the moment, in a sort of grief stasis. My brain is just so worried about my loved ones that I can't seem to get it to focus on anything else. Is anyone else feeling this way? I'm spending a lot of time in my garden, trying to distract myself. Thank goodness for pets, flowers, and Netflix 🌟🌟🌟 Hope everyone else is bearing up okay! I wanna get my butt into gear and get videos and activities up for kids stuck at home, so watch this space! — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/3dtPP1J
A nice thing about @reubenite being home more often bc I'm an anxious baby is that he can hang things up for which I'm too short. Case in point: @willowanna's handmade bunting. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2xanIE9
Definitely a wild time to be alive right now. I think what scares me most (beyond lack of political leadership) are the tales of thoughtlessness: people panic-buying stocks of food and necessities that other people might need (do u really need 300 rolls of toilet paper, Karen???), people not using basic hygiene etc. In a situation like this, thinking beyond yourself and looking out for the rest of the community is vital. Wash your grimy paws! Delay going out with mates for a week or so (the hot goss and cold pints can wait!). Also, if anyone wants to livestream/video themselves reading any of my books with @hardiegrantegmont for kids who are in quarantine, please feel free to do so (and send links my way for extra cute points!!). In times like this, all we have is community ♥️🌟 — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/3d65x2L
I'm over the moon, out past the galaxy thrilled for Kindness to appear on the #ABIA2020 longlist amongst such starry company! ✨🌟✨🌟✨ Hooray to my genius editor @alyson_obrien with TWO books in the younger readers category and to the ever incredible @poojades for her stellar design skills!! @hardiegrantegmont @littleharebooks #childrensbooks #picturebook #illustration — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2VL9dk6
Shout out to the incredible @buttbones who makes me feel like family every time I come to Melbourne! Not only is she the best cook I know (I'd commit crimes for just a crumb of one of her vegan cupcakes) but she's also brave, kind, loving, intelligent, strong and one of my favourite people in the goddang universe ♥️🌟♥️ — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2SADH6v

I have something special to share: in response to this summer's devastating bush fires, @scribblekidsbooks have put their genius noggins together to come up with a way to help out: @art_for_wildlife! You can grab exclusive, beautifully printed art by Australian children's book illustrators for $35, proceeds going to @seedmob and @bushheritageaus. This month's curation includes @marcmartinillo, @shauncytan, @rovinacai, @annazobel, @evie_barrow, and my own Protect and Respect print, which is the final time it will ever be printed! On the first day of each month, six new prints will be added! They'll each be available all year and you can even get gift vouchers! The Scribble team have put so much work into this and I'm honoured to be a part of it. Now, everyone go grab some art for Aussie animals! ✨🦘🌟 〰️ 〰️ 〰️ 〰️ #art #creative #design #art #illustration #design #illustrationgram #illustrationoftheday #koala #becreative #inspire #illustrationart #photooftheday #illustree #illustrationartists #instalike #instamood #instadaily #kangaroo #kidlit #kidsart #kidsillustration #childrensbooks #childrensillustration #australia #australiana #australiananimals #plants #bright #colours #bushfiresaustralia #australiaisburning — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2waRUOJ
Kindness Makes Us Strong window for @wherethewildthingsare_bookshop!! So much fun to work on, thanks for having me, guys! It's also weirdly difficult to get a photo of a window, so go check it in out in West End in Bris and have a wander through the wonder that is @wherethewildthingsare_bookshop!! 📚♥️🌟 @hardiegrantegmont @littleharebooks 〰️ 〰️ 〰 〰 #creative #design #art #illustration #design #illustrationgram #illustrationoftheday #becreative #ig #bekind #inspire #illustrationart #photooftheday #illustree #illustrationartists #print #bookstagram #loveyourbookshop #books #kidlit #choosekind #childrensillustration #picturebook #kidsart #books — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/36XFias
IT’S FINALLY HERE!!! Izzy and Frank, my new book with the incredible @katrina.lehman, is out with @scribblekidsbooks today! This story is just glorious. Katrina has outdone herself and I hope my illustrations even begin to do her words justice. No spoilers, but when I was illustrating the final page of Izzy, I kept bursting into tears, the story is so lovely! It’s out in good bookshops in Australia now and will be out in the UK and US in July! 🦀🏖⛵️🌊🐬 (📸 @theyoungersun) 〰️ 〰️ 〰️ 〰️ 〰️ 〰 〰 #creative #design #art #illustration #design #illustrationgram #illustrationoftheday #becreative #ig #igers #inspire #illustrationart #photooftheday #illustree #illustrationartists #print #bookstagram #ancientegypt #books #kidlit #kidsart #childrensillustration #picturebook #kidsart #book — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2RWunte

Nvr frgt the time I did a huge day of bookstore visits around Melbourne and got my photo taken quite a lot, all the while unaware I had sloshed a considerable amount of tea all down my front that morning. (📸 the glorious @squishyminnie!) — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2rXEJyS
UK pals, my solidarity is with the heartsore and those whose lives are at stake by virtue of these election results. But know this: community, empathy, and kindness are never far away. They just need to be tended. You're each more than up to the challenge 💪♥️✨ — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/36qKaF6
