“Tom is completely… alone.”

Sometimes, early in the bookmaking process, a scene appears in your head and becomes a touchstone for the rest of the book. This one made it intact through countless revisions! (From THE INDESTRUCTIBLE TOM CREAN.) 💙🧊🌊 #VikingChildrensBooks

These mini mock-ups of THE INDESTRUCTIBLE TOM CREAN got the biggest “oohs and ahhhs” from the kids at last week’s school visits. I hope they’ll try making some from their own stories! #VikingChildrensBooks

I’m putting together a presentation and remembering what a blast it was to work on this book. Amazing, *true* adventures from THE INDESTRUCTIBLE TOM CREAN! 💙🧊❄️🌊 #VikingChildrensBooks
