Last week, I wrote here<\/a><\/strong> about Jeff Newman’s<\/a><\/strong> Found<\/em> (Simon & Schuster, November 2018), illustrated by Larry Day<\/a><\/strong>, as well as Glenda Millard’s<\/a><\/strong> Pea Pod Lullaby<\/em> (Candlewick, December 2018), illustrated by Stephen Michael King<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n

I’m following up with art from these two books today. Larry also visits to share early thumbnail images, sketches, etc. from Found<\/em>. <\/p>\n
