When I was in high school, everyone used to tell me that I should write and illustrate children’s books. Or mostly illustrate, because I guess there was something about my style that made people think it’d work in children’s literature. I didn’t really know anything about it, and like many people who don’t, I didn’t think it was a serious art form.
