My new picture book, Family of Friends, illustrated by @ishaalobo.bsky.social, and published by Nancy Paulsen books hits the shelves on October 14th 2025. @nancyrosep.bsky.social. It’s a celebration of families, the ones we’re born into and the ones we choose.

Happy First Day of Autumn! Can you tell that Autumn is my favorite season? 🍁 Shout out to amazing illustrators Marc Boutavant and @ishaalobo.bsky.social for bringing all the beauty of the season to life.

Our book is out today!! 🐻 “This lush, poetic look at the real-life habits of a black bear cub in his first autumn shows his growing independence, the mother-cub bond, and the glorious wonders of nature, all wrapped in a warm bear hug of a picture book.” @karenjameson15.bsky.social 🍁🍂 #kidlit

My take on Heidi, written by Johanna Spyri. I've been wanting to practice drawing characters aimed at a middle grade audience so l decided to make a series of illustrations of some old classics. Here's the first! Also, I'm going to Bologna Book Fair next week, who else is going? #kidlit #kidlitart

It’s a cover reveal celebration for BEAR LOVES HIS HOME and I can “bear-ly” contain my excitement! Collaborating with Yosemite Conservatory and the amazing @ishaalobo.bsky.social has been a dream come true! This nonfiction picture book is a lyrical ode to American black bears. 🐻🌲🐾

"On Valentine's morning, Bigfoot knits some cosy socks by the fire, trying not to think about being alone. When he hears a knock, he nearly drops his socks."
