Bookshelf

In 2022 I drew nearly 160 pages of poetry comics for kids. The book will be published in Spring '24 by Chronicle Books. It's going to be hard to wait that long to share them all, but I'm excited to draw many more in the New Year!

Reading Is Dangerous

I drew this comic to illustrate the essay "Clunkers" by James McWilliams in the July 7 NY Times Sunday Book Review. The article is a hilarious musing on books as projectiles, and probably the most fun piece I've had the chance to illustrate. Thanks to ADs Rex Bonomelli and Nicholas Blechman for the gig!
