3/26/2018

When a stray tuna can accidentally brings Grumbler a new friend and this strange thing love, he must get rid of the tingly, terrible thing. But Grumbler soon finds out that trying to give away love comes with unexpected results.

I am thrilled to announce our first picture book, Grumbler, will be out in May of 2019. This manuscript has been months and months in the making and finally came to one of the most exciting stages...contracting an illustrator. We are excited to announce that Marina Veselinovic will bring Grumbler to life on the page!

Marina uses a combination of digital media and watercolor to create a unique look to her art. What caught my attention in her portfolio was the humor in her work combined with a style that is fun and eye catching for children. 

Here are some images I nabbed (with permission) from her portfolio:

Those peas crack me up. The two images above are from What If Vegetables Were People? Here is another one that got my attention...

Now that is just gorgeous. Doesn't it make you cold just looking at it?

This one is called "You're Toast." Poor little guy. He looks so concerned. I can't blame him, I would be, too. 

Needless to say, I fell in love with Marina's portfolio and was ecstatic when she agreed to illustrate Grumbler. 

Here are some of her other books:
Asher and Watson Set Sail: A Pirate's Book for Children 

The Ladybug Princess: A Princess Picture Book
The Lost Mariachis
​You're Toast
The Happy Teapot

I can't wait to see what Marina comes up with for Grumbler!
