What's Your Favorite Animal?


What's Your Favorite Animal? 
A new book with spreads by 14 different children's book artists (I'm one of them) and the proceeds from the book will support the work of The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art!
This image is the cover art for "Favorites." What's your own favorite animal? I hope you will enjoy this collection of favorites, each one so different from the next!
