I’m SO excited to share the cover of my debut picture book, Fire Flight: A Wildfire Escape. Illustrator Chiara Fedele did such a beautiful job bringing these words to life, and I can’t wait until it flies into the hands of readers on January 1, 2024.
I love the way the owl swoops over the forest as if looking to land in a familiar branch, and how beautiful and simple the forest looks. The threat of fire seems far away, and yet close enough to be unsettling. This book is about something scary – wildfire – and it is also about something important – connection. I feel it all in this cover!
