Pransky the labradoodle, (the therapy dog) visiting the folx in the memory care side of the residential home. This AI image almost looks like a real photograph!

A warm book about how one woman‘s life became enriched when she decided to volunteer at a residential home with her Labradoodle as a therapy dog. My dogs couldn‘t do it, they‘re too hyper! Our lives are always deeper when we help others somehow; deeper still, when there is a dog involved.

In an online event, Marilyn Baillie spoke about the Canadian children‘s picture book award that‘s in her name. Her room decor is eye-popping, isn‘t it?

This week, Our Little Kitchen won the CCBC‘s Marilyn Baillie Picture Book Award. In her acceptance speech, Jillian Tamaki spoke about food and housing insecurities and said she will be donating her award money to Toronto‘s Parkdale Legal, for their work in support of tenants.

I really liked this adorable, big-hearted picture book. The art is complex and beautiful, and it‘s packed full of inclusive characters. It was fun seeing the flurry of kitchen activity and slowly put together what the little kitchen was. I also loved the illustrated recipes in the front and back. I‘d buy an entire cookbook like that! (I mean, I already have one vaguely similar…) #PictureBook #Inclusivity #InclusivePicturebook
