![]() ![]() It was as if Jon plucked the characters straight from my head. What was it like to work with the brilliant Jon Klassen? Were his illustrations how you pictured the characters / scenes while you were writing them or did they surprise you? ![]() North Twist has been a joyful place to inhabit. I cannot remember! But yes, I chuckled as I wrote. Which scene was most fun to write? Did you ever find yourself laughing out loud while concocting some of the more humorous exchanges? I would like these two sides of myself to reconcile, and be good roommates. And then there’s the Skunk side of me (joyful, playful, full of enthusiasms for nearly everything). I have my Important Rock Work and I fight for focus, focus, focus. In some very real ways, this book is about my struggle with two characteristics of myself. It’s me! I mean, I am both of these characters. Was there a classic odd couple that inspired their characters? ![]() Skunk and Badger are so perfectly paired. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to go beyond the pages and learn more about the process of creating such an irresistibly quirky story. It was clever, funny, and unlike what I have been reading in the early reader category lately. ![]()
