A fond farewell
They say this is "a time for change" and so is the case here at the Picture Book Junkies. After much consideration we have decided to go on an indefinite hiatus.
Anyone that hosts a blog knows the amount of time and mental energy it takes so I'm sure you can respect our decision.
It has been an incredible journey and one that we can all take pride in.
Thanks to all of our readers for taking the time to visit and leave comments. You kept our team buoyed with your enthusiasm. It has been a blast connecting with other picture book junkies out there!

It was great seeing such a group of talented illustrators all in one spot-- this blog will certainly be missed. You've inspired more people than you probably realize! Thanks for sharing your talents and insights.
And Roz, I love this bear!
