Pictured above are two paintings from the book.

Ah. Kalman.

  1. OK – first of all, this is amazing, thanks for posting and bringing your Kirkus review to our attention. Secondly – the review is BRILLIANT! I was blown away. You should be very, very proud of your work. I think you are a kind and modest person, but you should be proud. Yes, I did read it at midnight, but still – I’m just saying.
