I think the first book of Vanessa Brantley-Newton’s that I brought home from the library and shared with my eldest daughter at a young age was Grandma’s Purse. I fell in love with it immediately and with good reason: not only did Brantley-Newton’s adorable story capture my heart and entrance my kiddo, her gorgeous, bright, pop-off-the-page illustrations made me feel so cheerful, I wanted more from wherever that came from.
What a lovely interview with an amazing artist. Thank you!
Great interview. We love MAMA'S WORK SHOES (learned about it here). It has helped my kids process me leaving for work trips. I'll check out her books.
My daughter loves Just Like Me!! Great interview. :)
