It was Virginia Woolf who said, “You cannot find peace by avoiding life,” and it was Confucius who said “Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day,” but who can remember such things? You'd remember if a penguin said them, and now they do. Always Share Your Iceberg pairs 52 wise, witty, profound quotes from history's great writers, thinkers, and dreamers with penguin cartoons that bring the words to life in a new and engaging way. J.D. Salinger said, “She wasn't doing a thing that I could see, except standing there, leaning on the balcony railing, holding the universe together.” And when the “she” in the illustration is a penguin,a great quote becomes unforgettable.
I am an author of children's books and graphic novels. What a funny thing to say--I still feel like a kid just scraping around this planet trying to figure everything out. Perhaps that feeling is what keeps me curious enough to write, to draw, to hopefully entertain.
For me, creation is a daily struggle. It has never come easy but I will never stop trying. So long as there is oil in my lamp and ink in my pen--you'll find me in a poorly lit room, hacking away the hours, deep into the night.
