How can I deny it? My days are filled with as many random and wonderful things as creators can put into their books.
Last week found me aboard a ferry crossing the Maine waters bound for Peaks Island.
For that day I was helping plan an art show, a book launch, and a conservation fundraiser focused on the book Nest, Nook & Cranny by Susan Blackaby and illustrated by the queen of the tender line, illustrator Jamie Hogan. Tender? How can you deny it? Look at this illustration!
A percentage of the event proceeds will go the The Peaks Island Land Preserve and their stellar president and Renaissance man, Garry Fox led us off into the Peaks Island woods to choose a nature walk for the event. Critters (including this polka dotted one) abounded.
Mark your calendars for October 16th and Jamie Hogan will be back to you with the woodsy details.
Check out Jamie’s (always engaging) blog about the Peaks Island woods and our particular day in them –including me getting peed on by a toad, no less.
