It would look like a notebook with dividers, and there'd be different subjects and things [preschoolers] could do, so that they could feel like they were going to school also.

It really does feel, partly because of graphic novels kids read, like there's a lot of freedom with how you can use both images and words, because we think in both of those ways.

By the time I finished the book [All Alone in the Universe], Robin Roy was saying, "More pictures!"

I know if I did that [career as painter] all the time I would get tired of it.

I'm structured with time.

I felt ten years old and a thousand years old, but I didn't know how to be my own age. I had never felt that way before, but now I feel like that a lot.

A long time ago, I had an idea to make a book for preschoolers who had older siblings who were going to school.
