CHAI IS 5 TODAY🌷🌷🌷
My beautiful April Fool, favorite flower sniffer, checker of all things art and musical instrument (she needs to see if they work obviously), hater of vegetables, and of course my Chai-cago dog. We’re still looking for donations and commissions for her eye surgery, so give her a special day and consider getting one or adding to the tip pool 🎂
Happy first book birthday to Tiger Tuffy and the Awesome Birthday Bike! I did *16* different events at libraries, bookshops, schools and more all around the country last year, and it’s safe to say it was a hit. Thank you to everyone that’s grabbed a copy, more are on the way! Thank you to my editor @nicarolinam for having me start this amazing journey into being an author. Look at for the next one 👀
