This is some of the art I did for the upcoming 10th Anniversary Literary Lights for Children sponsored by the Boston Public Library. The event will honor some stellar creative folk: Susan Cooper (who visited us at The Blue Bunny!), Christopher Paul Curtis, Laura Amy Schlitz, Chris Van Allsburg (who I ate dinner with at his marvelous house)! I was honored at the same event last year and was tapped on the shoulder to provide the invitation art for this year! I called this piece: "The Throne of Books." I am in the process of making it a Giclee print.

Peter,
My wife and i are professional artists and we love your work. So does our 20 month old daughter. Thanks for the joy.
Thanks, Stacy, Terry, Ellen,Kevin (and your wife and daughter!) -- I appreciate the kind words. I am working hard on a deadline for a new book, so reading the messages gave me a lift. Back to the drawing board!

I love it, Peter! I actually can visualize where I'd put it in my office at First Book right now...!
