🌱 The Wall and the Wild is a powerful classroom read for exploring inclusion, difference & growth.
Through Ana’s story, pupils learn to value what doesn’t “fit,” embrace diversity, and look beyond the wall to understand others.
A brilliant pick for #DisabilityHistoryMonth 💛

Today! Make sure you use the correct hashtag (don't forget the ART part in #KidLitArtPostcard). Also try to remember to use alt-text! Not only does it help those who use screen readers & neurodivergent but it can help your post get discovered.
Tomorrow is the last #KidLitArtPostcard of 2025. My holiday wish is for #kidlit editors, agents, and art directors to connect with illustrators right here on Bluesky. I can't wait to see everyone's art tomorrow! Learn more at: www.ginaperry.com/postcard
