What my desk looks like right now...

I'm in the middle of painting the finishes for my new Kidogo book. When i'm painting I have a hard time thinking about anything else. My brain doesn't like transitions.

Wuhoo, Grace!

My friend Grace Lin just won a Newbery Honor award for her book, Where the Mountain Meets the Moon! I am so thrilled for her. Yay, Grace!! If you haven't already, go read her book, everyone. She is a wonderful and amazing author and illustrator. I'm so proud of her.
