Gunther the Underwater Elephant

I have posted this news a few times, but wanted to share it with the Picture Bookies Showcase.
Gunther the Underwater Elephant is at the printers. I should have my copies about the same time the book is released.  That would be around September 15.  It is especially exciting for me because although I have illustrated over 20 books, this is the first one I have written and illustrated.  Once the reviews are out I will know if little Gunther will sink or swim *:)   There will be giveaways once the book is released.
