Get ready, get set, Go! The third book in the series: My Friend Ben and the Big Race will be released March 1st!
This book was inspired by summer memories of snorkeling in the mountain lake at my aunt and uncle’s cabin. I loved exploring the bottom of the lake which had old growth stumps and gnarly logs from the early logging days in the state of Washington. From underwater these stumps and logs looked like amazing cities populated by all kinds of fresh water critters: crayfish, bass, catfish, and snails.
One of my favorite illustrations from the book is the map of the beaver pond. I had a blast drawing all of the locations of where Chip and Ben love to have their adventures.
