If writing to an author and/or illustrator will help you to earn a Scouting badge, then please do the following:
1. Read one of Jaybie D.'s books independently or with your troop.
2. Go to the Contact page and send an email with your thoughts and questions.
Jaybie D. will be happy to respond!
Be creative and send a positive drawing about one of the books, dress up as a character, recreate a scene, or take a picture holding the book.
You'll be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a book and/or other goodies. Jaybie D. might even post it online and/or add it to one of the upcoming books for all to see!
Jaybie D. is proud to partner with a growing network of book-loving communities that share a passion for storytelling and spreading joy through reading.
📚 The Book Yeti and the Writers Collaboration Tribe bring together talented children’s book authors from around the world. From laugh-out-loud tales to stories that touch the heart, these collections span a wide variety of topics, genres, languages, and worldviews—religious and non-religious alike. Together, we support each other’s work and offer families, teachers, and librarians an ever-expanding bookshelf of imaginative, inclusive, and meaningful reads.
📺 And meet Ruby’s Bedtime Stories—a sweet and spirited young reader from England who shares picture books on her YouTube channel to help children everywhere enjoy the magic of storytime. Ruby’s mission is simple and beautiful: to make books accessible to kids around the world, one bedtime story at a time.
