Skunk’s idea to solve his lack of family is be a dog - everyone loves them! Neighborhood critters help with a disguise and send him to a missing dog’s house, but they forget one critical thing. Nice ending with a found family. Fun pics. @collierK_ @DISD_Libraries #bookaday

@lindamludke @KariLynnWinters @KidsCanPress 🥰

In What If I'm Not a Cat? by @KariLynnWinters, illus @collierK_ , I love how Donkey kicks away an existential crisis with model cat class and spiffy cat style. "ME-HAW" #picturebookoftheday @KidsCanPress

Kelly Collier’s drawings for “Otis & Peanut” are at the same time stylish and cartoony. The characters are amiably odd-looking, and their changing facial expressions effectively reveal their personalities. nyti.ms/3WysXoy

@ElspethLor @Naseemo This has to be my favourite review ever. Haha! Thank you!!!

@bradfallis @ireadcanadian @wyattLRSD Thanks for the tweet! 🥰

@reedandwriteki1 @Naseemo @inkyelbows @owlkids A third Steve book is in the works! I had a baby last year and no one told me how much work they are so I’m just getting back to making Steve books now. Haha!

@collierK_ @Naseemo @inkyelbows @owlkids Oh Kellie Steve always gets me and my girls laughing! Is a third one coming?

@reedandwriteki1 @Naseemo @inkyelbows @owlkids 😆 same!!!
