Debuting in the summer of 2017, #PBHOT62 is a reading challenge created for picture books writers to continue to build their craft (readers are also welcome to join in). Samples and details on how to sign up are below.

Picture
Read someplace delicious (I threw a picture book party in the garden).
Picture
Read on you tippy toes (I tiptoed down this path).
Picture
Read someplace new (I picked the dentist chair).

This is a laid back challenge designed to get you reading, writing and working your creative muscles. If you have five minutes you have time for this challenge! Picture this by the end of summer you will have read 62 picture books, created a reading habit, experienced new things (if you’re like me, your introverted-self could use a push), and maybe even penned a picture book or two. Sharing online is completely optional (I like to share on social media).
  • 2017 debut year!!!! Theme was favourite places to read.
