Juni wrote this poem weeks ago. As soon as she wrote it I said, "This is amazing!" and hung it up in my studio.
Since then, I’ve thought about how I would illustrate it. This morning, after marveling at several of her drawings- I asked her for help! You should’ve seen her face when I said “And we can use my pencils!”
It was so much fun to color in her characters, draw beside her, and absorb some of her imaginative, spontaneous, five year old creative energy.
