Happy to announce that I got to illustrate another cover for the lovely Michelle Mohrweis! I drew the cover for their earlier book The Trouble With Robots and was so excited to be able to dive back into their world again.

Congrats to Michelle on another wonderful, heartfelt, and compassionate novel! And thank you so much to Maria Fazio and Lily Steele at @peachtreepublishers, it's always a joy to work with their team!

  Please check out The Problem With Gravity when it debuts in September!

We Baby Bears got nominated for an Annie Award! The episode I wrote "A Real Crayon" was nominated for Best TV/Media - Children category. When I wrote this episode, I was thinking of how me and my sister would draw comics together as kids, I'm grateful that I was able to put that feeling into this episode. Congratulations to our amazing crew!

New episodes of We Baby Bears are airing this month including two that I wrote: "Bath On The Nile" - The Bears find an Ancient Egypt-inspired spa with a not-so hygienic curse. This episode was a lot of fun to research because I love looking at ancient art - I spent a lot of time scrolling through the Met Museum's online catalogue lol.   "Who Crashed The RV?" - Our Rashomon episode featuring three different style designs by our amazing Art Department!

I just called my senators & congressman & asked them to make public statements that they oppose Trump’s appointment of Steve Bannon as his Chief of Staff.

Here’s what I said: “Is Senator _________ aware of Bannon’s ant-semitic comments, and that he is supported by white supremacist groups like the KKK?” “Well, I know that Senator ___________ is as appalled by ant-semitism & white nationalism as I am. I encourage him to publicly state his disapproval of Bannon, making it clear that extremists like him have no place in public office. I look forward to hearing his statement.”

Then I ask if they need my zip so they know I am a constituent.

WHAT GOOD WILL THIS DO:

Conventional wisdom is that 1 phone call to a congressperson represents 50 unheard voters. We need to let our politicians know we are mobilized.

We need to make it clear to conservatives that siding with Trump is going to be a political risk for them. Many Trump voters don’t actually love Trump, and republicans know that. They are on shakey ground. We need to drive a wedge within their party.

If by some miracle we stop Bannon’s appointment it will make for a saner 4 years. It will also be a symbol of Trumps weakness. Trump followers hate weakness. It will make him lose face.

If you have a progressive congressperson: Let them know they have your support in speaking out, or your gratitude if they’ve already done so. You can email them or write if you don’t want to overwhelm their phone lines.

Be nice to the person you’re talking to. They are aides.

SAVE YOUR CONGRESSPEOPLE’S NUMBERS IN YOUR PHONE. YOU WILL BE CALLING THEM A LOT IN THE NEXT FOUR YEARS.

GEORGIA PEOPLE: These are our senators, and the rep for GA district 10:

Senator Isakson Local office: 770-661-0999 DC office: 202-224-3643

Senator Perdue Local Office: 404-865-0087 DC Office: 202-224-3521

Congressman Hice (GA district 10) DC Office: 202-225-4101

and u can use sites like http://act.commoncause.org/site/PageServer?pagename=sunlight_advocacy_list_page or https://www.govtrack.us/congress/members to find ur representatives 

calling is really important, and even more effective than writing letters, emails, tweeting.
