ReviewsWho's in charge of making a picture book: the illustrator or the writer? And what happens if they don't get along? Segal-Walters's debut begins as an ordinary introduction to different types of animals (mammals, birds, amphibians, etc.), but before long the illustrator has taken over. . . . With pencil shavings, crayons, erasers, scissors, tape, and construction paper, Biggs uses in-progress drawings, used erasers, and taped-in images to show an illustrator struggling mightily to interpret the text as the narrator grows increasingly frustrated. . . . A knowing and very funny behind-the-scenes look at the art--and negotiation--of collaboration.', The true focus of this book is the arguing between author and illustrator--not animals. Reading it aloud in two distinct, argumentative voices (with a little storyteller-guidance) could really get kids giggling., Who's in charge of making a picture book: the illustrator or the writer?

A knowing and very funny behind-the-scenes look at the art--and negotiation--of collaboration., Segal-Walters' narrator "thinks she's in charge" of her presentation of characteristics of different animals and animal groups, but she is one-upped by illustrator Biggs, who uses ink, crayon, and digital color to add Post-it notes and comments. His illustrations are quirky and funny. . . . Entertaining and even educational.
