Yield a crop of pumpkins!
This is from a picture book that I illustrated called THE GOODBYE CANCER GARDEN, written by Janna Matthies. It recently won the 2011 Best English Language Children's Book at the Sharjah International Book Fair - wow! And it's also been chosen for CCBC Choices 2012: The Cooperative Children's Book Center top children's book picks for 2012. It's being translated into Arabic and Danish. I hope I get copies of those!
Cancer affects so many families these days. This is such an important, hopeful book about one family's way of responding to Mom's breast cancer recovery. What an honor to illustrate.

I love the light.
So beautiful and soft! I like this very much.
I absolutely love the illustrations in this book and actually come back to your blog to look at them from time to time. The colours and style are gorgeous!
Thanks so much, everyone. Check this book out at your library or ask your library to order it if they don't have it. It's a great story to help start conversations with your kids about cancer and recovery if you know someone who has cancer.
beautiful colors!
