I recently learned that Jaime Kim will be illustrating my next picture book, which is about the moon and will be coming out from Millbrook in spring 2017. (No, it’s not a can be… book.) I was unfamiliar with her work, and Carol Hinz sent me to Jaime’s website, which features this slideshow of her work. Sigh. Do you see all those glorious moons? Including this one?
I am SO excited and can’t wait to see what she does with my words.
Gorgeous work by Jaime Kim – no wonder you’re excited! I’m excited too. 🙂
Isn’t it? Thanks, Michelle:>)
Stunning! Very exciting. I’m sure it will be a great combination of words and illustrations. Bravo to you! Congratulations too!
Thanks, Linda!
Definitely a reason to SQUEEEEE with excitement! Gorgeous work! Congratulations on scoring such a wonderful partner for your book.
Thanks, Keri. It’s always a relief to love the artwork of the artist the editor chooses. Whew!
Beautiful, and exciting to imagine a moon book, Laura. I do love moon writing and the art will be spectacular with your spectacular poems. Congratulations!
Thank you, Linda–I am sure hoping:>)
oooh, the moon in words and pictures!
I’m so excited!
This is going to be AMAZING, Laura. Yay!
*sigh* This is Tanita. Don’t know why I’m suddenly hiding.
Thanks, Tanita–My settings are newish now that my whole site is wordpress (not just my blog). Which is my way of saying, Who knows? :>)
Wow! Just love her work. Congrats! And I love your new website!
Thanks, Penny! On both counts:>)
I am so happy for you.
Thanks, Terri–so good to see you last week. Wish we could have chatted more!
Beautiful! And your website update is lovely as well!
Thank you, Cathy!
What a gorgeous book marriage this will be! The moon is happy! So many congratulations, Laura! xo
Thanks, Amy–I’m glad the moon approves ;>)
Many, many congrats, Laura! Love Jaime’s work, and isn’t Carol a pleasure to work with? So impressed by her knowledge of writing.
Thanks, Charles–whee, and right back at you. Can’t wait to read your book with Irene. So happy for you. And, yes, Carol is pretty much a dream.
