I was wondering about when to spill the beans about this newest book. It's out at the end of August, which is still a little while away, but reviews are already coming in so...I feel like it's time to introduce The Wonderful Things You Will Be !
My tribute to possibilities (whether playing in a band or sewing pants for squirrels, just to name a few) just received a starred review from Publisher's Weekly. Such nice news.
Here's a snippet from the publisher's description: From brave and bold to creative and clever, the rhythmic rhyme expresses all the loving things that parents think of when they look at their children. With beautiful, and sometimes humorous, illustrations, this is a book grown-ups will love reading over and over to kids—both young and old.
This book makes a nice trio with Dream Animals & Day Dreamers, but it's quite different. More grounded in the real, actual world (although plenty of surreal and weird little bits got in there, of course.) It's brighter & more airy, and a bit more modern. Well, more mid-century than 19th century. ; )
I'm so excited for this book to be out there!
In the meantime, you can pre-order via Amazon
