Amazon

Today's books showcase the work of talented illustrators Dora Mitchell, the author herself, and popular children's illustrator Steve Ferchaud. 

 
Children's librarian Dora Mitchell wrote and illustrated The Haunted Serpent, a children's book set in dark woods like those that surround her hometown of Quincy, California.
 
Robyn Engel wrote a modern-day spin on the classic children's tale The Emperor's New Clothes. Robyn's book, The Trumpeter's New Clothes, for adults with a sense of humor, is illustrated by Steve Ferchaud.
