Here's the color version of a spread from my picture book dummy that I promised you in my last post. When I submit my sketch dummy of my own picture book manuscript to publishers, I'll also send along a couple full-color spreads so that they can see what the finished art would look like. Actually, I'll be submitting to agents first who handle picture book author/illustrators. I've never submitted my work to agents before, so I'm starting to gather info for a dream agent list.

Thank you so much for stopping by and congratulations for your new Cora's book!! It's GORGEOUS!! You are a great illustrator and writer and I really appreciate your nice comments!!
Do you have Linda Pratt of Sheldon Fogelman Agency on your list? I met her at an SCBWI event last summer and she was wonderful. She reps LeUyen Pham's work.

So exciting!! This spread looks fab!! Can't wait to see more...
Tell me - how do you make it go larger when you click? I just can't get it to do it!?!
Thanks Vicki and Amy!
Lynne - when you click the illustration itself, it should open in the same window as a larger image. Hope it works for you!
