Earth Day 2015
Earth Day is April 22nd and Arbor Day is April 24th. I can't think of a better way to celebrate than to plant a tree. They need soil, sun, and water to grow strong.

Featured Title: COMPOST STEW by Ashley Wolff

I'm thrilled to have back my friend and fellow professor at Hollins University, Ashley Wolff. Her wonderfully environmental book, COMPOST STEW, has just been released in paperback, and she dropped by to talk about it's creation. CLICK HERE to read more about it.

Earth Day Brownie
Beth Klosterboer of Hungry Happenings recently emailed me to ask permission to use my Earth Day image "Love the World You're On..." for a baking craft. I love it when people create unusual things with my images, so of course I said 'yes'! And look how great it turned out! Visit her website to learn how to make this Earth Day Brownie yourself!

"Don't be afraid of death; be afraid of an unlived life. You don't have to live forever, you just have to live." — Natalie Babbitt, Tuck Everlasting

Video of the Week...
I recently stumbled across this video by James Ransome creating the cover illustration for his book LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS. I shared it with a student, but I think the world should see!

WHAT I'M READING...
I'm down to just THE WOOD WIFE by Terri Windling right now. What a magical book. It's making for a nice escape during all this packing to move madness!


*MY BOOKS!* One of the reasons I create my coloring pages is to draw (ha!) attention to my books. Word of mouth is my best advertising, so I'm counting on you to help spread the word! Click a cover to learn more.
