Thank you Chris for opening up your studio to us! Such a treat. My 3 boys have grown up on McGee and Jack and even Mercy Watson, so they were thrilled to gather round and watch how the magic happens. Keep up the good work!
HI Chris – Will (Pearl street ) -roll on with your lab
Chris, all your work is gold! I’m a homeschool mom of two boys and we love your books for readaloud, especially The Circus Ship and King Hugo! Your books were the first picture books I read to my kids that surprised me with fun, delightful rhyme. I couldn’t believe your illustrations were done by hand! Love how you illustrate water! You’ve even inspired me to write/illustrate my own children’s picture books!
