Description
Here's an illustration from "The Enormous Egg," a classic chapter book from the 1950's I was hired to re-illustrate for Little, Brown & Co. I had a lot of fun doing this book, and took the job very seriously, since I knew the original had been admired by several generations of readers.Related content

Your book "Miki Falls" is one of the mangas available at our school. Our librarian asked me a couple titles to mangas she could buy for the library and I though, "Hey! Why not support one of my favorite authors?"
I suggested Miki Falls and now it's in our school. Keep drawing~!!

I loved this story when I was a kid!
Mainly because the main character has the smae name as be, but still...dinosaur eggs.
Which come to think of it, a T-rex would've been more fitting.
Somebody really needed to make a sequal to that.

I love your drawings! I think they have an original copy of this book at my library... might dig it up to compare the illustrations in both versions.
