What a wonderful time of year as the seasons change. It was a whirlwind of a summer.

I'm so excited that my new book, A Year In The Secret Garden is finished. My wonderful friend, Valarie Budayr and I created this book to introduce a new generation of families to the children's classic, The Secret Garden, making the story come to life with historical information, crafts, recipes and of course, paper toys.

It's available as a full color print book and also as a downloadable PDF and if you buy the book, there is a Secret Garden website with all kinds of extra printies to make. It is honestly the prettiest book that I have ever illustrated and I hope that you like it.

Wishing you a creative week,

Best thoughts,
