Time to Doodle & Sketch : An Interview with Shennen Bersani, by Ashley Lucas

Some of the many children's picture books I have illustrated.  Most can be purchased on Amazon here.  New books will be released in 2016 and 2017.

I was recently interviewed by the very talented Ashley Lucas* for EasternPennPoints, the Official Blog of the Eastern Pennsylvania Chapter of the SCBWI.  Here is a link to the full feature:

I don't want to give away the interview on my blog, I'd like you to click the link and read it for yourself.  But I will answer a question I've been asked.  What is up with that photo of me?  In the interview I mention I do a lot of research for my books.  In that photo (in the interview) I am at the Monterey Bay Aquarium behind the exhibit halls in one of the kitchens where food for the sea creatures is prepared.  Here I am holding a squid that will be fed to one of the animals.  I was researching all things slimy for the book Sea Slime: It's Eeuwy, Gooey and Under the Sea, written by Dr. Ellen Prager, Arbordale Publishing.  Sea Slime: It's Eeuwy, Gooey and Under the Sea has been well received in the state of Florida.  I will update what is happening in a future blog post.  All very exciting!  Also, check out new pollen photos and book reviews over at www.achoowhypollencounts.com.
