Delighted to find a very early copy of COPLAND at my door this morning! This book was a bit like printmaking: I wasn't sure how the pieces would come together until holding it in my hand! thank you to Lucia Baez & Kate Renner for lending your terrific design eyes 👁❤️ #kidlit #childrensbooks

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

People hate their own art because it looks like they made it. They think if they get better, it will stop looking like they made it. A better person made it. But there's no level of skill beyond which you stop being you. You hate the most valuable thing about your art.

I’m so thrilled to finally share what I’ve been squirreled away working on ❤️ Thank you to my agent Andrea Morrison, my editor Tamar Brazis, and the entire Viking team who saw the very early seed of this idea and encouraged me to grow it. See ya in 2026 ❤️
