Unwanted: Donald Trump

Update: I've made this image available as an 8 x 10 print on ETSY for only $6. Buy a bunch and plaster them around town.

I'm not a political person and I don't like to get into political discussions because they often lead to unnecessary disputes.

However, when Donald Trump opens his mouth and spouts vitriol for the sake of getting press (at least one hopes that's the reason), I don't mind throwing in some of my own commentary. See below.


Buy this print on ETSY.

New Chapter Book: Elephitten

My newest chapter book has been published: Elephitten.

The book is written by Michael Andrew Fox and is the third in a series of books from Petimals Books. The first two books are Dogopotamus and Hamstigator.

The series revolves around a young boy, Coby, who really wants his parents to get him a pet. But he doesn't want anything to do with 'normal' pets, so he goes about inventing his own.

This book was a huge challenge considering the main character is meant to be a cute kitten with the features of an elephant. No cute little kitty nose- instead an elephant's trunk. No adorable paws- instead elephant feet. I went through so many iterations of this character before finally feeling like I got him right.

My daughter seems to think I got it right:

For fun I created an animated GIF of Elephitten:

And here are some additional illustrations from inside the book:
