I forgot to
post two books! First is one I did
with Scholastic. They have a great series based on
the old nursery rhyme we all know - 'There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly'.
I was asked to illustrate a version written by the clever Chrissy
Bozik. It's all about camping in Canada and Anne and Andrea really let me have fun with this
book. My niece tells me it's her son's favourite book!
Also just out is 'Join the No-Plastic Challenge!' (part of 'Exploring Our Community' with Kids Can Press). It's an important subject and I'm really happy KCP was
as excited as I was to do this. It's also good to have Greenpeace
onboard to give it their seal of approval. I've been hearing
educators are approaching my publisher to see what's new in the
series – that's a compliment!
I'm keeping my
fingers crossed for another book in the same series called 'Follow that
Bee!' It's made the long list for the Subaru Science award. Even if I
don't win I'm grateful to be among such good company.
That's it for what's out there. There's a couple of
books in the works that will be out late next year. I will keep you
posted when they are done.
And finally, I did a
cover for the upcoming Write magazine – the magazine for the
writers' union of Canada.
Ok, all caught up!
