We are continuing to use this space to share #distancelearning resources. We have several read-alouds, DIY makerspace ideas, virtual field trips, and much more, includingn contributions by @kaokaliayang @kidlitlove @noni.ramos @suefliess.

Author Chris Barton explains how to discuss tough topics with children in this @sljournal article. "Grief and tragedy know no boundaries and are not reserved for adults. These are difficult, painful, and very real parts of life, even if adults might shy away from addressing them with children."

As lifelong learners, we know we don't know everything. We are planning on using this space to share online resources that could help keep everyone learning and engaged as we navigate this unprecedented time. So, today, our blog post has a long list of resources you may want to try.

For those who are stuck at home, I wanted to try to shed a little light on your day with a few notes on Flash and Gleam by @SueFliess. I enjoy editing #picturebooks because each one is different. And each one also comes about in a unique way, which makes it fun to ask, “Where did the idea for this book come from?”

John Coy and @natcapkidlit's new picture book, If We Were Gone: Imagining the World without People, is not your average #picturebook. In a review, Publishers Weekly called it a "disturbingly beautiful dystopian meditation." When John, Natalie, and those of us at Lerner were working on the book, we certainly didn't imagine that it would be released just as a global pandemic was spreading. If you’re curious about how If We Were Gone came to be and what sort of reactions students have had at school visits, author John Coy shares the story in our blog post.
