Anyway, I'm remiss in announcing that Billy Twitters and His Blue Whale Problem by Mac Barnett is now available! I illustrated it! If you've been following my posts about it, you may remember that Billy's mother has been threatening to buy him a blue whale if he doesn't shape up.
One morning, Billy's sure he can feel something watching him:
Well, maybe Mom can buy him a whale, but there's no way Billy's bringing it to school.

cool! Can't wait to read it and look at all the great pictures!
Hope the transition back into Tuscon goes very well :)
Really excited to read this. It seems like it would have been really difficult to get the scale between the kid and the whale to read. But every picture I've seen of it looks awesome. (what do I know about all this though, I'm a writer, not an illustrator) Great job, can't wait to get my grubby hands on a copy.
The book looks great! Sorry we folks on the east coast lost you to Arizona. Nice weather there, though. :)
Love the illustrations! The one with the fin inside the door is so wonderful and the one with him towing it with his bike. . .just to much fun! Going now to order the book!
Ooooo... I can't wait to get my hands on a copy! ...and welcome back to Tucson! Missed the heat did ya?! :D
yeeeaa!!
Very cool! I look forward to reading it to the tots. They're currently absorbed in "Tree Ring Circus".
In a recent post you mentioned working digitally on this book. Is this one Photoshop? If so, flawless transition.
Thanks everyone!
Yeah, Kyle, it's Photoshop CS3 with a Wacom. I'm happy to hear you don't think it's too obvious.
And see you around, Jennifer!
Arizona? We're practically neighbors!
We're totally neighbors, Dan. Come over this afternoon and we'll go bowling.
mad cool, Adam. Speaking of unpacking boxes...one small box of frankenstein wending its way west.

I was applying to Little Shop Of Stories in GA last week and saw your new book! =] I'll be buying it soon for sure.
The chrome on that faucet is luscious. These are great Adam. Good luck with the heat in AZ, I hear it's about 12 miles from the sun.
Best of luck with your new book.
These are amazing! Great stuff.
Adam, I love these panels so much! Glad to hear the move is going well.. even for living out of boxes..you never realize how much stuff you really have until you move.
Take that, Herman Melville!
Good luck unpacking!
Beautiful!
Wow. Just... wow.
Amazing work. I love the atmospheric perspective in that street scene.
That's sad you had to move from Philly. I love that city.
Got this for my 23rd Birthday and it's phenomenally good - what an inspiration you are Mr Rex!
Loving the ads on the inside of the hardback, did Mac Barnett write those too?
Yep, every word, Chris. Happy Birthday!
Hey, Vinod!
Respect to Mac Barnett! Thanks Adam :D
Book looks fantastic. Can't wait to get a copy!
