Max's Boat

What a delight to have @toniyuly onboard! Toni joins Max's Boat to talk about her upcoming book, THE PELICAN CAN!, her favorite picture books, and her artistic process. (I'll never look at torn paper the same way again!) maxsboat.com/post/interview…

Matthew Cordell stops by to talk WOLF IN THE SNOW, a timeless book that somehow manages to be even more timely today than when it first came out seven years ago. tinyurl.com/36wsyx8h

Matthew Cordell's early character sketches for EVERGREEN. Process geeks, enjoy! Check out more of Matthew's sketches on Max's Boat tinyurl.com/45c5e98w

Matthew Cordell talks influences for EVERGREEN, the picture book creators he most admires, and exciting new talents. P.S. What a cover!! maxsboat.com/post/interview…

It's Matthew Cordell week on Max's Boat! Matt joins Max's Boat this week with two interviews. Here's the first, for his latest picture book, EVERGREEN: maxsboat.com/post/interview…

In my interview w @janeebrittany about her new book, FOREVER AND ALWAYS, illustrated by @sknightjustice, Brittany retorted with questions of her own: What does it mean to be secure and who gets that right? Read the interview + Brittany's favorite books. tinyurl.com/yhptn7z8
