Melissa is giving a collage workshop next month at a conference here in Seattle and I’ve signed up! So excited to meet her! Thanks for keeping us in touch with other fabulous picture book artists.

Thank you for sharing this post Salley! It’s been an honor and a thrill to do this book and to connect with people who know Tony Sarg, (and to introduce him to those who don’t know him).
He’s pretty inspiring. Best, Melissa

This looks wonderful! (I do know who Tony Sarg is due to research of another puppeteer. And I have seen the parade!) Think that I must get this book! Thanks for sharing this!
