moving some books & found "A Moon Or A Button" by Ruth Krauss & Remy Charlip (it's little so it gets lost sometimes)
"This Is Not My Hat" is about a fish who steals a hat from a very big fish and spends the book telling us that it was an ok thing to do & that he's going to be fine but it isn't & then he isn't fine. It is told completely in monologue.
Happy publication day to Pax Journey Home by @sarapennypacker ! It was a real pleasure illustrating it.
digging through old stuff & found a rough alt cover idea for Amy Timberlake's first "Skunk and Badger" book that I have no memory of making but seeing now i kinda like it
drew some skull stuff last year & just made a folder for them.
it's so crazy that Lotte Reiniger made a feature-length film that looked like this 10 years before Disney made anything that long

that ghost table drawing led to this little story, again pretty old now, but it's actually an idea I had in third grade. I've been trying to expand it into a book but it's tough to expand without ruining it - it makes me kind of emotional just the way it is.
"Ghost Goes In The Door" (an oldie now but still a goodie imo)
got reminded of this old one just now - I think most of my affection for it still comes from the pun on "legend". Happy almost Halloween you guys.

old one out our apartment door on the second floor of a house. It was a good apartment.
