LATEST NEWS!
My latest picture book PIGNIC will be released on March 6 from the good folks at Greenwillow Books!
"More than a few readers will wish that their own picnics could end in a similarly messy manner, and even more will adore the easygoing exuberance of Phelan’s story." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
"This warm, nearly wordless story is a nice choice for young listeners and early readers, who will bask in the light of this sparkling celebration of togetherness, goodwill, and the great outdoors." (Kirkus Reviews)
“Perfect for short attention spans. Soft, fuzzy illustrations depict cherubic, rosy-cheeked pigs having a wonderful time...the composition and pacing are superb. A stellar offering for the younger set, whether shared in storytime or read one-on-one.” — School Library Journal (starred review)
