From the Vault: A Cake for Mama

A Cake for Mama

My newest book, MAX MAKES A CAKE (Random House 2014), went through many drafts and versions on its way to becoming a book. Along the road there, it was once A CAKE FOR MAMA -- here's a sketch from the dummy I did for that story.

I write and illustrate stories for children and adults. My stories are about family, friendship, knitting, and community. They chronicle the large and small victories and defeats of everyday life.
