Elephant Hugs. A little girl riding an elephant, sharing a warm hug - this moment is all about the special bond between two unlikely friends 🥰

What kind of animal would you love to ride?

She skips where the wildflowers whisper, barefoot in the hush of golden light. Laughter trailing like petals on the breeze, a tiny soul skipping through the heart of the meadow.

She tiptoed through twilight, chasing whispers of light…
With a giggle and a jar, she caught moonbeams and stars.

The book lies open beside her, but her mind has wandered far beyond the pages. While her cat sleeps peacefully, she’s off chasing stories of her own.

Just a girl, her bubbles, and a sky full of dreams 🫧
Because happiness really is that simple 💕

Sometimes, all you need is a cuddle from your best friend.

Meet our little dreamer and his teddy, sharing a quiet moment of love, comfort and imagination.

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard Day! I'm Gina Perry, and I love creating high-appeal characters, settings, and stories that make reading FUN for kids. Art is from the picture book TOO MUCH! NOT ENOUGH! (Tundra). See more of my work at: www.ginaperry.com #kidlit

Illustration from the picture book TOO MUCH! NOT ENOUGH! (written and illustrated by Gina Perry, published by Tundra/Penguin Random House). Two monsters are in a yellow kitchen with lots of dirty dishes and food still on the table. Peanut, the little orange monster is making a bubble beard and hat from the dish soap. Moe, the large blue monster, is washing the dishes and looking annoyed with Peanut. This is a postcard so text at the top left reads "Gina Perry, Author/Illustrator, Represented by Sean McCarthy"

He jumps, he splashes, droplets fly,
A sparkling world beneath the sky,
Mud on his boots, joy in his grin,
Let the rain play - let the fun begin!

Trying to capture emotion in a new character. Scared.

I don't know my way around Flashes very well yet, but I will say it has been a DREAM to browse today's #kidlitart postcard posts! Just a smooth, endless stream of art - like the very very old days of instagram.

Picture book commissioners want characters with personalities, rather than those too cute to have any spark. Join my LIVE workshop on 21.03.25 in Islington & I’ll impart some golden rules & simple techniques to create animal characters in colour!

Hello #KidLitArtPostcard day! I'm an author/illustrator and creator of this event. I love beets, toy trucks, and fairies - maybe someday I'll get to make a book with all three! Rep'd by Sean McCarthy. www.ginaperry.com #kidlit #kidlitart

Illustrated postcard. Woodsy scene of several gnomes in trucks and a trike. One is a gnom-bulance carrying an injured chipmunk. And orange truck carries fresh beets. The trike has a flower bouquet, approved by a nearby bee. A fox lurks in the shadows. Art by Gina Perry

Is there anything more special than the bond between a child and their dog!
