What was your favorite book when you were a child?
Pippi Longstocking by Astrid Lindgren
William Kurelek’s A Prairie Boy’s Winter/Summer
Ali Mitgutsch’s picture booksWhy did you want to become an author or illustrator?
I like combining text and images and telling stories through pictures, whether it’s illustrating someone else’s text or my own. The best part is coming up with a visualization of the characters and the world they live in.
