Illustrated by Eric Carle

Dear Eric Carle,
Where do your ideas come from? How do you make your pictures? When you were little, did you have a best friend?

Eric Carle, creator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, each year receives thousands of letters from children from all over the world asking questions like these. Now, the beloved artist-storyteller invites you and your children into his own studio where he reads from The Very Busy Spider,The Very Quiet Cricket, and Draw Me A Star, and shows, step by step, how he prepares his colorful tissue papers and creates brilliant collage pictures.

In this remarkable and beautiful anthology featuring the likes of Maurice Sendak, Robert Sabuda, Rosemary Wells, and Eric Carle, twenty-three of the most honored and beloved artists in children’s literature talk informally to children—sharing secrets about their art and how they began their adventures into illustration. Fold-out pages featuring photographs of their early work, their studios and materials, as well as sketches and finished art create an exuberant feast for the eye that will attract both children and adults.

Self-portraits of each illustrator crown this important anthology that celebrates the artists and the art of the picture book. An event book for the ages.

All proceeds from the book will benefit The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art.
