About the contributor(s)
Kevin Lewis loves recognizing that bouncy, busy brown sugar baby spirit, especially when he sees it in the fans of his popular picture book favorites Chugga Chugga Choo-Choo, My Truck is Stuck!, and The Runaway Pumpkin. Kevin lives in a 200-year-old farmhouse in Newburgh, New York, with his husband, Phil, a dog named Kat, and two cats named Prim and Rue.
Jestenia Southerland loves stories that spark the imagination, and the potential of passing that feeling on to others is what drives her as an illustrator. When she's not drawing, she loves spending time with her two dogs, Kojack and Katia.
