The art is gentle and Aunty Jane is such a pretty older woman. This feels so refreshing…North Street critique by Ellen LeFleche

This is Steve’s second book with Charity Russell. Charity also created the lovely, fun illustrations for Filbert the Lonely Flamingo. Steve co-authored Filbert with his sister Ellen Wolfson Valladares.
