How learning to guide my own children taught me the same lessons I wrote for yours.

How I wrote a book about optimism and spent most of the time thinking like Pessa Mistic.

How a waiting period, a daughter, and a lot of very good dogs turned into one of my favorite days making this book.

On first sketches, first nerves, and learning that pictures are their own language.
