I Miss Mr. Rogers

I miss Mr. Rogers, but what I miss most is the world he made seem possible: curious, creative, gentle, and kind enough to include the person making the art.

These past weeks of gratitude led me back to the illustrators whose pages first opened worlds for me. This post is a small thank-you to the hands that helped form my creative life.
