Alfie Finito!

Today I delivered all the final art for Alfie Runs Away, by Ken Cadow. Hurrah! Ken was able to travel down to NYC/ FSG office to see the work, and it was a pleasure to finally put the face to the name. My last task is to work on the hand type for the title, which should be lots of fun! Alfie is a Frances Foster book and will hit shelves in the Spring of 2010(!) -- Stay tuned!

Brooklyn Museum

Yesterday was the annual Brooklyn Museum Children's Book Fair, and I was happy to be part of it once again this year. There were a bunch of great authors and illustrators, all from Brooklyn, participating in the event. We were there signing from 1-5pm. pheeew! Was a very nice turnout, and especially exciting to be able to share a table with Paul!
