Happy Book Birthday!
A book’s release date is a very special time for an author. It’s a BOOK BIRTHDAY! It’s a time for celebration and I want to celebrate with you. Here’s how Happy Book Birthday works–If you have a children’s picture book set to be released, tell me about it!
Use the form on my Contact page and give me the following information:
- Title
- Author
- Illustrator
- Publisher
- Release Date
- A link to a picture of the cover
- Short summary of the book
- Format (hardcover, paperback, eBook, etc.)
I will spotlight your book on Frog on a Blog and wish you a Happy Book Birthday! Your post will be sent to all of my blog followers and social media friends. In return, please comply with the following 3 conditions:
- Your book must be a children’s picture book (It can be fiction or nonfiction, traditionally published or self-published, or even an eBook, but it must be a picture book. Picture books are the focus of this blog.)
- Subscribe to Frog on a Blog by entering your e-mail in the ‘subscribe’ box near the top of the sidebar. (You can always unsubscribe at a later date, if you choose.)
- Share your Happy Book Birthday post on one (or all) of your social media sites such as Twitter (X), Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, your Blog, etc. (Why wouldn’t you want to share your good news?)
That’s it! It’s a piece of cake, birthday cake. It doesn’t matter if it’s your first, third, thirtieth, or three hundredth book, let’s celebrate your BOOK BIRTHDAY together!
I will make every effort to post on or as close as possible to your release date. Family and work take priority.

I came across your post through the Kidlitosphere. My first children picture book is in the beginning of its production process (working with Iguana Books) and knowing that there are blogs like yours that will help promote picture books is helpful. It makes me less nervous of my publishing journey.

Congratulations on publishing your first book! I understand how that can be both exciting and stressful. When you finally hold the finished product in your hands, I’m sure you will feel it was all worth it. Best of luck on your journey. 🙂
