Shop & Share Books!

With all the book banning going on, I wanted a way to encourage people to share books instead of hate, so I made some sticker and T-shirt designs to giveaway. I had so much fun, I turned it into a store. Every year, I give a portion of the profits to EveryLibrary to help support libraries and fight book banning across the U.S. Click on a category below to see more designs.
