An advanced copy of Dotty trotted over to my mailbox yesterday morning, courtesy of the wonderful team at Abrams. Thank you to Erica Perl for such a stellar story about imaginary friendships. These two books are very different in nature and voice, and I approached them from two different visual perspectives as well. It's so freeing to work in multiple styles and realms. Dotty's cover also sports a fancy shimmer with spot glitter on the jacket. Yes, glitter! It hits stores this August!
Très joli livre... la couverture est géniale
