Finally finished my picturebook dummy & I'm really proud of it! If you're an editor/art director & would like to see it, let me know (or Sophie at BookEnds).
It's about a hermit crab who doesn't want to leave his shell. (And not remotely autobiographical, how dare you even suggest it 👀🐚) #kidlitart
