PRAISE FOR TEN THANK-YOU LETTERS--A Dollywood Selection

“Another sweet lesson in thoughtfulness. . . . Kirk’s neoretro illustrations capture the good feelings and slight annoyance between these two pals. . . . [His] expert combination of old techniques (drawing with ink, painting plywood panels) with new ones (adding colors and textures with Photoshop) nicely highlights the perpetual value of appreciation.”—Booklist

PRAISE FOR TEN THINGS I LOVE ABOUT YOU

“A charmingly illustrated book about self-expression, sharing, cooperation, gratitude—what’s not to love?”—NYTimes Book Review
 
* “Rabbit and Pig join the ranks of duos that grapple with the intricacies of friendship—and impressively stand out. . . . Kirk gets the comic timing just right. . . . Although great for reading aloud, put this at the top of the list for using as a springboard  for creative writing or a discussion starter about what qualities make a good friend.”—Kirkus STAR
