I have a new goal: to create a character so iconic that it moves people to sculpt it with pastries. This is a photo from a wonderful blog called "Cake Wrecks."

Blossom Plays Possum - Advance Copy!

Advance copies of Blossom Plays Possum arrived on my doorstep! I'm so pleased with how it turned out, from the touches of glitter on the cover to the thoughtful advice from a child psychologist in the back matter. (And I'm doubly pleased that my husband was with me when I opened the box, to see I dedicated the book to him!) The folks at Magination Press consistently put out great books to help kids deal with all sorts of issues, and they're so lovely to work with. The book will be out in July, so if you know any shy kids, or parents of shy kids, check it out!

Illustration Friday: "Sweater"

This little drawing is actually a twofer: it fits the Illustration Friday theme of "Sweater" AND the PBAA blog 's theme of "Wooly." Does this make me lazy or efficient?

SkADaMo - Day 5

This is a twofer, also covering the Illustration Friday topic, "Secret." When I pondered on that subject a bit, I thought of a hilarious story I heard recently on The Moth Radio Hour (which, if you've never heard of it, is great to listen to). It's a story about boys coveting rare Lego pieces, and hiding them in their cubbies. Having spent many years in the land of Legos when my boys were young, I knew exactly the pieces described. You can listen to the story here .
