I’m honored by this advanced praise for THE CLOUD THAT STUCK from two people I admire.
BTW, the photo is mine. The sky can be so dramatic sometimes, and these storm clouds fit with our book, which is expressively illustrated by @doroleung.bsky.social. Coming from @charlesbridge.bsky.social in April.
