Vanessa - Amazing! I knew it would be so fantastic, and it's beyond that. Your work is superb here..look at Tori's face. It's TORI's FACE! : ) Wonderfully sweet, and that little pup is so charming..love the foot positioning in her arms. Congratulations..the book cover is just so beautifully designed and I'm sure the rest of the book is filled with pages that have your uniquely Nester quality- that which is to me sparkly, full of positive energy, charm and beauty. I know this is just the tip o' the iceberg for many, many more picture books. I know Ms. Spelling must be beaming with how it turned out. : ) Yay for Nester!!
Congratulations to you, what a beautiful illustration! I learn so much from your drawing.

Oh my gosh! Congratulations! This is so wonderful, and I am not at all surprised. Isn't God good? I can't wait to see it in print...and I feel like I kind of know the illustrator, you know? Oh, and you would be so proud of me, I've been doing a bit more animation and illustration lately. You are quite the inspiration. I even showed my art students your illustrations as examples in our animation section!
YAAAAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Oh goodness GRACIOUS, woman, this looks WOW...I mean...just WOW! I'd grab it off the shelf as soon as I saw it, oh yes indeedie. The little girl on there is ADORABLE, just like a little Tori. Ohhh, I bet you made her squeal with happiness. What an incredible project, and you are the perfect person for it. I am SOOOOO very happy and proud of you! Oooooooh, I know someone famous now! Heeeheeeheeeeeee!
